EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a significant moment in history - the Boxer Rebellion in China. The image showcases Chinese Christians leaving Beijing during this tumultuous period, marked by anti-Christian sentiments, anti-foreign sentiment, and a general resistance against Western influence. Taken around 1902, at the turn of the century, this stereograph offers us a glimpse into the early days of photography. The composition shows a group of people fleeing on a road, seeking refuge from the chaos that surrounded them. Their expressions reflect fear and uncertainty as they navigate through an uncertain future. The Boxer Rebellion was a violent uprising against foreign powers and Christian missionaries who were seen as symbols of imperialist intrusion. This rebellion aimed to restore traditional Chinese values and rid China of Western influence. It resulted in widespread destruction and loss of life. Through this photograph, we are reminded of the resilience and strength displayed by these Chinese Christians as they faced adversity head-on. Their determination to protect their faith amidst immense danger is truly inspiring. Granger Art on Demand has preserved this historical moment for us to reflect upon today. It serves as a reminder that even in times of great turmoil, humanity's spirit can endure and prevail over hatred and intolerance.
