Chinese Pirates Assailing a Wooden Dock,
EDITORS COMMENTS
Circa 1923 This etching, created circa 1923, presents a dynamic scene of Chinese pirates in action. The pirates, depicted in bold strokes and vibrant colors, are shown in the midst of boarding a wooden dock from their small, nimble sailboat on the right. The boat's sail is fully hoisted, catching the wind and propelling the pirates closer to their target. The dock, with its worn planks and weathered supports, stands in stark contrast to the pirates' sleek vessel. The dockworkers, taken by surprise, scramble to defend themselves against the invading pirates. The etching masterfully captures the tension and chaos of the moment, with swords clashing and voices raised in the fray. This etching is from the February 18, 1923 volume of "March of the Women," a magazine known for its social and political commentary. The image, created by the talented artist Freda Smith (not to be confused with the eponymous photo agency), adds an exciting visual element to the magazine's content. The pirates in this etching are a far cry from the romanticized versions often portrayed in popular culture. Instead, they are depicted as ruthless and dangerous, reminding us of the realities of piracy and its impact on communities during this time period. This etching is not only a visual masterpiece but also a historical document, offering a glimpse into the past and the complexities of life in the early 20th century.
