Painting Description
"The Emperor Qianlong Receives the Homage of the Conquered Eleuths (Tartar Kalmucks)" is the second plate in a series of prints that depict the military conquests of the Qianlong Emperor, who reigned over China from 1735 to 1796. This series was commissioned by the Qianlong Emperor himself to commemorate his successful military campaigns and to visually document the expansion of the Qing Dynasty's territories. The prints were designed by Jean Denis Attiret, a French Jesuit missionary and painter who served in the Qing court, and were later engraved in Europe.
The series of prints, including this particular plate, is notable for its intricate detail and historical significance. "The Emperor Qianlong Receives the Homage of the Conquered Eleuths" specifically illustrates a moment of triumph and diplomacy, capturing the ceremonial submission of the Eleuths, a subgroup of the Dzungar people, to the Qing Emperor. The Dzungar Khanate, located in what is now Xinjiang, was a significant rival to the Qing Dynasty, and its conquest was a major achievement for Qianlong.
In the print, the Emperor is depicted in a grand and authoritative manner, receiving the homage of the defeated Eleuth leaders. The scene is rich with symbolic elements that emphasize the Emperor's power and the legitimacy of his rule. The detailed attire of the figures, the elaborate setting, and the careful composition all contribute to the narrative of imperial dominance and benevolence.
The creation of these prints involved a collaboration between Chinese and European artists and craftsmen. After Attiret and other court artists completed the designs, the drawings were sent to Europe, where they were engraved by skilled European engravers. This cross-cultural artistic endeavor resulted in a unique blend of Chinese and Western artistic techniques and styles.
"The Emperor Qianlong Receives the Homage of the Conquered Eleuths" and the other prints in the series serve as both historical records and propagandistic tools, intended to glorify the Emperor's achievements and reinforce the image of the Qing Dynasty's supremacy. Today, these prints are valued not only for their artistic merit but also for their historical and cultural significance, offering insights into the Qing Dynasty's military history and its interactions with neighboring peoples.
