Description:
- This photograph is one in a series of views which Felice Beato made of the four Taku Forts (Harris, p. 139; Worswick, p. 138). - The title of a published identical image, "Interior of the English Entrance to North Fort on August 21st 1860" is inaccurate, as this view shows the inside of the fort at the point where the French forces entered (Harris, pp. 140-141). - The identical image published in Harris (p. 62, cat. no. 17) does not show the crossbow and ladder visible at u.l. in the CCA image, indicating that the published photo was either retouched or is a second (copy) negative (Harris p. 141).
