EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving from the 19th century, we are transported to a world of ancient traditions and primitive religions. The print titled "Turning around the Bridge Ladder" takes us on a journey through China's rich cultural heritage. The image showcases a scene filled with people from various nations and religions, highlighting the diversity of beliefs in this uncivilized era. Amidst them, Taoism stands out as one of the prominent religious practices depicted here. As we delve deeper into this artwork, it becomes apparent that it serves as an illustration for G. T. Battany's book "Primitive Religions". This comparative study sheds light on non-Christian faiths prevalent in Asia during that time. The bridge ladder itself becomes symbolic of bridging gaps between different cultures and belief systems. It represents a connection between Chinese society and its religious practices, emphasizing how religion played an integral role in shaping Asian civilizations. Through this print, we gain insight into the lives of Asians during this period - their customs, spirituality, and unique way of life. Bridgeman Images has preserved this piece from a private collection for us to appreciate today. This print is not only visually stunning but also offers valuable historical context about religion in Asia. It reminds us to embrace diversity and understand the roots of different cultures while appreciating their contributions to our global tapestry.
