EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of the Exterior North Fort in Tianjin, China. Taken on August 21,1860, by renowned photographers Felice Beato and Henry Hering, this albumen silver print showcases the impressive English Entrance of the fort. The image transports us back to a time when Western influence was making its mark on Chinese soil. The imposing architecture of the fort stands tall against a clear sky, evoking a sense of power and dominance. The meticulous details captured by Beato and Hering highlight their expertise in composition and lighting. As we gaze at this historic snapshot, we can almost imagine ourselves standing at that very spot over a century ago. The intricate design elements of the English Entrance draw our attention with their ornate carvings and sturdy construction. We are left wondering about the stories these walls could tell - tales of battles fought or diplomatic negotiations held within its confines. This print from Liszt Collection is not just an artistic masterpiece but also serves as a valuable historical document. It reminds us of how cultures collide and intertwine throughout history, leaving lasting imprints on both sides. Whether viewed for its aesthetic beauty or studied for its historical significance, this image offers a glimpse into a pivotal moment in Sino-Western relations during the mid-19th century.
