EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Tz U-Hsi, the Empress Dowager of China, in all her regal glory. The image, taken from Le Petit Journal on 8th July 1900, is a beautifully colored engraving by the French School of the 20th century. Tz U-Hsi exudes power and elegance as she sits half-length in traditional Chinese costume. Her headdress adds to her majestic presence, while her fan symbolizes her authority and grace. This portrait captures the essence of a woman who held immense influence during a significant period in Asian history. Known for her strong leadership and political acumen, Tz U-Hsi was an imperial figure who played a pivotal role in shaping China's destiny. Often referred to as Cixi or Tsu Hsi, she ruled with an iron fist and was both revered and feared by many. In this engraving, we see Tz U-Hsi seated confidently on her throne-like chair, emanating an air of wisdom and determination. Her gaze is steady yet enigmatic, hinting at the complexities that lay behind those piercing eyes. This artwork provides us with a glimpse into the world of one of China's most influential female leaders. It serves as a reminder of Tz U-Hsi's legacy as both despot and imperatrice douairiere de Chine - a woman whose impact on history cannot be ignored or forgotten.
