EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by Robert Lee Dunn around 1904, captures a moment in history as a string of pontoons, towed by a stream launch, approaches the crowded landing stage at Chemulpo (now Incheon), South Korea. The image offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the transportation methods used during the early 20th century, particularly during the Russo-Japanese War. The scene is filled with a sense of arrival and meeting of frontiers, as soldiers and other personnel disembark from the boats, ready to begin their next mission or engage in diplomatic negotiations. The overcrowded landing stage is a testament to the high volume of military traffic during this time, with men of various nationalities, likely from Japan and Korea, jostling for position. The photograph also highlights the importance of water transport during this era, as the boats provide a vital means of transportation for troops and supplies. The rudders of the boats can be seen clearly in the image, adding to the intricate details that make this photograph a valuable historical art piece. Robert Lee Dunn's image is a testament to the rich heritage and history of Asia, particularly South Korea, during the early 1900s. The photograph's timeless quality and the stories it tells make it a valuable addition to any collection, offering a unique perspective into the past.
