Company of Boxers, Tien-Tsin, China (photograph: The Whiting View Company, 1901)

LoC description:

The Opium Wars and Boxer Rebellion were violent products of nineteenth-century contact between China and the West. Although British operations in China during the period are well documented, few photographs of the Chinese Boxer troops survive. Originating in the mid-nineteenth century, the stereograph was an ancestor of the newsreel, affording Americans a window on the remote corners of the globe.
