The War in Japan: the Red Battery opening fire on the corvettes, Sept. 6, 1864. Creator: Smyth
The War in Japan: the Red Battery opening fire on the corvettes, Sept. 6, 1864. Engraving from a sketch by Mr. C. Wirgman, ...our Special Artist and Correspondent who was present on board one of the ships in the allied squadron during the attack upon the batteries of the Daimio Prince of Nagato, in the Strait of Simonosaki...The Coquette and the Tancrede continued until dark to maintain a conflict with the Red Battery (otherwise called "Battery No. 7 ")...this battery...at daybreak next morning opened fire upon the corvette squadron...Preparations were then made for landing. At nine o'clock precisely a force of about 1900 men, including the marines, engineers, and sailors, were put ashore...the enemy had taken shelter in a neighbouring wood, from which they fired upon our men...the signal of truce was hoisted all over the fleet, and it was understood that the Prince of Nagato had made his peace with the Allies...a Minister of Nagato...came off to the Admirals to demand the cessation of hostilities and draw up the bases of a convention, the principal arrangements of which are the following: The opening of the Strait of Simonosaki to the vessels of all nations; the batteries neither to be armed nor repaired'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864
