Sino-Japanese War Naval Battle, 1894

Comments - Dramatic illustration of a naval battle during the Sino-Japanese War. At right, a Chinese ship sinks beneath the waves at a precarious angle, pitching the crew into the water as others cling desperately to the rigging. The sailors bob on the choppy water as red flames and smoke pour from the vessel, spreading across the night sky. At left, Japanese sailors rejoice from the deck of a warship, cheering and waving their arms. A memorable image from this historic conflict.
