EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from the Liszt Collection transports us back in time to August 1,1860, inside the historic Pehtang Fort in China. The image showcases the interior of the fort, specifically highlighting its magazine and a remarkable wooden gun. The photographer behind this masterpiece is Felice Beato, an English artist born in Italy in 1832. Known for his pioneering work in photojournalism during the early days of photography, Beato expertly captures every intricate detail within this scene. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, our eyes are drawn to the impressive wooden gun that stands tall against one of the fort's walls. Its craftsmanship is awe-inspiring; each curve and groove meticulously carved by skilled hands. This formidable weapon serves as a testament to both Chinese ingenuity and military might. The surrounding space reveals glimpses of life within Pehtang Fort - barrels stacked neatly against another wall hint at provisions stored for battle readiness. Dim light filters through small windows high above, casting dramatic shadows on worn stone floors. Beato's choice of albumen silver print adds depth and texture to this historical gem while preserving its authenticity over time. As we gaze upon this extraordinary piece from centuries past, it sparks curiosity about life within these ancient walls and invites us to imagine what stories they hold.
