EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful lithograph captures a pivotal moment in history during the Battle of the Yalu River in 1904. The image depicts Russian soldiers retreating to Fenghuangcheng after being attacked by the Japanese at Chuliencheng, Manchuria. The intensity and chaos of battle are palpable as the soldiers navigate through the rugged terrain, their expressions reflecting a mix of determination and fear.
The artist, Richard Caton Woodville II, skillfully conveys the desperation of war through his detailed depiction of the soldiers' uniforms and equipment. The black-and-white composition adds to the sense of urgency and danger faced by these men on the battlefield.
This print serves as a poignant reminder of the human cost of conflict and imperialism. It is a testament to the bravery and sacrifice of those who fought in this brutal war between Russia and Japan.
