EDITORS COMMENTS
The engraving titled "A Tribute of Respect to 'Chinese Gordon', Li Hung Chang placing a Wreath on the Statue in Trafalgar Square" captures a poignant moment in history. The image showcases Chinese official Li Hung Chang, dressed in traditional attire, paying homage to General Gordon's statue amidst the bustling city of London. In this ceremonial act, Li Hung Chang symbolizes the deep respect and admiration that China held for General Gordon, also known as "Chinese Gordon". The wreath he delicately places on the statue serves as a tribute to the fallen hero who played a significant role in China's history. Trafalgar Square stands witness to this powerful gesture, with its iconic landmarks serving as an awe-inspiring backdrop.
