EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures a significant moment in history as Prince Henry of Prussia sets foot on Chinese soil for the very first time. The 19th-century English School artist beautifully depicts this historic event, showcasing the prince's arrival in the Far East with great attention to detail. The scene is bustling with activity, depicting a vibrant street in China. Sedan chairs line the streets, hinting at the royal procession that accompanies Prince Henry on his journey. The atmosphere is filled with anticipation and curiosity as locals gather to catch a glimpse of this distinguished visitor from afar. Prince Henry himself stands tall and regal amidst the crowd, exuding an air of importance befitting his royal status. His presence signifies not only diplomatic relations between Germany and China but also marks an important milestone in cultural exchange between Europe and Asia. This engraving originally appeared in The Graphic newspaper on April 30th, 1898, providing readers with a visual representation of this historic occasion. Preserved within private collections today, it serves as a testament to both artistic skill and historical significance. Through this lithograph, we are transported back in time to witness Prince Henry's monumental step onto Chinese soil—a moment that forever connects two distant lands through diplomacy and exploration.
