Framed Print of Sketches on the Yangtsze River, China, 1890. Creator: Unknown
Sketches on the Yangtsze River, China, 1890. The Shin T'an Great Rapid, where goods are landed to be carried on men's backs. 2. Approaching the Ninkan Gorge. 3. Entrance to the Ichang Gorge. 4. Junk, downward-bound. 5. Looking down the Ninkan Gorge. 6. The Tungling Rapid. 7. Ferry opposite Ichang. We are favoured by Mrs. Archibald Little with some photographs, taken by her, of the grand and beautiful scenery of the gorges through which flow the rapids of the Upper Yangtsze..."The Yangtsze gorges must now be reckoned among those great and famous sights which everyone who would see the world must see if he can...The carriage of goods from Ichang to Chungking, five hundred miles, costs about three times as much as from London to Shanghai, ten thousand miles; and not uncommonly, out of a company of boats, two will be lost, thus rendering an expensive cargo of machinery useless until a fresh consignment of the missing pieces be received from Europe...the loss of life is great, in spite of the admirably organised service of Chinese life-boats, stationed at each of the rapids". Steamers are permitted to ascend no higher than Ichang, which is 1000 miles from the mouth of the river. From "Illustrated London News", 1890.
