EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph captures the dramatic moment of the attempted invasion of Japan in 1281 by the mighty Mongol Armada. With a hundred thousand men, this formidable force set sail towards Japan, their sails billowing against a vivid blue sky. The image is rich with historical significance, representing a pivotal event in Asian history. The scene depicts Japanese warriors valiantly defending their homeland against the invading fleet. However, nature intervened as a devastating typhoon struck, wreaking havoc upon the Mongol Armada. The destructive power of this natural disaster caused immense loss and destruction to both ships and crews. Yet amidst this chaos, there is hope. Chinese troops are seen bravely rescuing survivors from the wreckage, symbolizing unity and compassion across nations during times of crisis. This lithograph serves as an illustration for an edition of the Harmsworth History of the World dating back to around 1910. It not only showcases remarkable artistic skill but also provides valuable insight into one of Asia's most significant historical events. As we gaze at this print today, it reminds us that even in moments when humanity clashes or faces devastation, there is always resilience and heroism to be found. This artwork encapsulates both tragedy and triumph while honoring those who fought on all sides during this historic event.
