The War in China - the "Havoc" gun-boat, with Fane's Horse on board, on its way from Talien-Wan to the Pehtang - from a sketch by our special artist, C. Wirgman, 1860. Men of the British Indian Army on board one of the 'stinging mosquitoes of the waters which will soon buzz about the Taku transports are waiting to convey the army and field-train to the scene of action, so that nearly 200 vessels can be counted from the cliffs'. From "Illustrated London News", 1860.
