After the Capture of the Taku Forts 1860 Felice Beato British, born Italy One of the first professional photographers to create an extensive documentation of China and Japan, Felice Beato was also a pioneer war photographer, reporting on scenes of massacre and devastation with a graphic matter-of-factness unknown prior to his images. Having opened a studio in Istanbul with his brother-in-law James Robertson, Beato covered with him the last battles of the Crimean War after the departure of Robert Fenton (see nos. 98 and 99). The two photographers went on to India to document the Indian Mutiny; their photographs made in 1858, after the siege of Lucknow, were perhaps the first to show actual corpses on the battlefield. During the second Opium War in China in 1860, Beato, now on his own, created a memorable indictment of war's senseless slaughter at Fort Taku. War continued to hold a peculiar fascination for Beato throughout his career. After settling in Yokohama, where he completed his
