EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Short Black Devil" showcases an intriguing engraving by the English School from the 19th century. This artwork, now part of a private collection, was originally featured in G. T. Battany's book "Primitive Religions" published by Ward Lock in 1891. The image depicts a figure known as the Short Black Devil, representing a fascinating aspect of Chinese culture and religion. It offers us a glimpse into the world of primitive religions and their practices in China during that era. This engraving serves as a comparative study between Taoism and other non-Christian belief systems prevalent among uncivilized nations at the time. By highlighting this unique representation of Chinese spirituality, it sheds light on the diverse religious landscape of Asia. Through this thought-provoking artwork, we are invited to explore different perspectives on religion and its significance within various cultures. The Short Black Devil stands as an emblematic figure symbolizing ancient Chinese traditions and beliefs that have shaped Asian societies for centuries. Bridgeman Images has beautifully captured this historical piece through their lens, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and cultural importance.
