Summary:
Accompanying the British Army during its decisive foray into China in 1860, Felice Beato was the first photographer to document a military campaign in progress. He captured not only the immediacy of war, the aftermath of battle, and strategic military positions, but also the sumptuous new Summer Palace before its destruction by the British. His photographic record of the Second Opium War consisted of approximately 100 images, including a number of panoramic views, which survive in the form of private albums orignally compiled by British officers as a record of their victorious campaign. In addition to providing a strikingly beautiful glimpse of nineteenth-century China, these images also reveal how photography functioned as an integral component of British imperialism by shaping perceptions about a distant country and its culture. This publication accompanies a major exhibition of Beato's work in China.
