EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sketches in Formosa, Arrival at Bankimsing" transports us back to the streets of Taiwan in 1890. The engraving, created by Amedee Forestier and now part of a private collection, captures the essence of this momentous occasion. The scene depicted showcases an arrival at Bankimsing, bustling with activity and street scenes that bring life to the image. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he beautifully portrays traditional dress worn by locals, complete with intricate yokes and vibrant colors that add depth to the composition. Lanterns illuminate the surroundings, casting a warm glow on the faces of those passing by. It is through Forestier's skilled hand that we are able to witness this snapshot in time - a glimpse into Taiwanese culture during this era. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection, we are reminded of how art has the power to transport us across time and space. This engraving not only serves as a visual delight but also provides historical insight into Taiwan's rich heritage.
