EDITORS COMMENTS
This allegorical engraving titled 'Russo-Japanese War (1904-1905)' by L. Brunet, created in 1905, offers a symbolic representation of the historic conflict between Russia and Japan. The image portrays a defeated Russia, symbolized by a Russian bear, bowing before a triumphant Japan, represented by a Japanese man, holding a European-style hat and a flag. The backdrop of the scene is a snowy port, with the ruins of Port Arthur in the distance, signifying the strategic Russian port city that was captured by the Japanese forces during the war. The allegory conveys the idea of Japan's unexpected victory over the European power of Russia. The Russian bear, a traditional symbol of Russia, is shown with a skull on its back, representing the loss of life and the heavy toll the war took on both sides. The Japanese man, on the other hand, stands tall and proud, symbolizing Japan's resilience and determination. The engraving, colored and intricately detailed, was produced during the height of the conflict and reflects the European perspective of the war. It is a visual testament to the historical significance of the Russo-Japanese War, which marked a turning point in the balance of power in East Asia and paved the way for Japan's emergence as a major world power.
