An album of 68 albumen prints of China and Japan, including views of North Peiho [Taku] Fort, the Emperor`s Palace and the Summer Palace, Peking, Hong Kong, Yedo and Yokohama, the first leaf signed in margin (vertically), `No. 20 F.

A FINE AND IMPORTANT EARLY ALBUM FROM FELICE BEATO`S STUDIO IN JAPAN, DOCUMENTING THE ANGLO-CHINESE OPIUM WAR, HONG KONG HARBOUR, PEKING, YOKOHAMA AND YEDO. Albums by Beato that contain prints of both China and Japan are very rare. This example offers 23 prints of views in China, 34 of views in Japan, 8 prints of drawings by C. Wirgman, and 3 portrait studies. Among these there are 11 folding panoramas, including Hong Kong Harbour, the aftermath of battle at the North Fort Peiho and views of Yokohama and Yedo.
