Series The Revolution army in Middle China
Lettering The march of the Revolution Army on Wu-han
Summary The city of Wuhan was one of the starting points of the 1911 revolution against the Imperial regime
Portraits of two revolutionary leaders in roundels at top; the right one resembles Sun Yat Sen
Note The series continues the tradition of war prints issued at the time of the Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895) and the Russo-Japanese War (1905), but those were woodblock prints. Here, the traditional technique has been abandoned, and western-style lithography used. Perhaps intended for export to China
