Framed Print of Sketches in Formosa: crossing the lagoon in a gale, 1890. Creator: Unknown
Sketches in Formosa: crossing the lagoon in a gale, 1890. We have published some of Mr. E. H. Grimani's sketches and notes of his sojourn at Takow, on the south-west shore of the island of Formosa, and of his excursion, with two friends, to Bankimsing, a native village almost beyond the pale of Chinese civilisation, on the verge of the central highlands, where tribes of savage mountaineers have recently asserted their independence by sanguinary inroads on the peaceable dwellers in the plains below...In order to join his travelling companions, who met him on the road from another place, he had to cross a wide lagoon in a rather unsafe boat or canoe, with two Chinese boatmen or boys, who encountered a violent gale of wind, raising formidable billows, as if in the open sea, and to them at least, in this adventure, there was some alarm, if not actual danger'. From "Illustrated London News", 1890. Heritage Images features heritage image collections. © The Print Collector/Heritage Images
