Condición: Sehr gut. Original photographic carbon print published in the very rare 2 volume edition of "Tibet and Lhasa", total size 47 x 34 cm, size of picture 31,5 x 19 cm, very good condition. John Claude White`s photographical report of the Younghusband Mission to Lhasa is one of the most beautiful and rarest books about Tibet. The story is that the British Government did not want the Chinese to have such a detailed information about the route between Lhasa and the frontier of British India, and the publication was immediately supressed. Only a handful of copies are known (two at the British Library, including Eric Bailey`s copy, Royal Geographical Society, Liverpool Museum (Bell`s copy), Newark and Peabody Essex Museum, Salem - the only complete copy we are aware that had been on the market, auctioned in 1979 for USD 100,000 and then partly dismembered for an exhibition (compare Lhalungpa, Lobsang Phuntshok: Tibet. The Sacred Realm, 1983). A copy also has to be in the library of the 8th Gorkha Rifles (compare Sood, Younghusband, Troubled Campaign, 2005, where all plates are reproduced. John Claude White, 1853-1918 has been political officer for Sikkim and Bhutan, finally also for Tibet and became famous for his landmark photography. Johnston & Hoffmann advertised for this publication, according to which single prints could be ordered, as well as a "Edition du Luxe" with 100 prints. The copies we saw comprise actually 83 plates, some double page and several folding panoramas. This plate shows the landing place along the Tsangpo, where the British troops gathered to cross the river, which caused a major incident, when the logistics officer, Capt. Brethereton, drowned during the crossing. Even such single prints as this are exceedingly rare. Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 550.

Oblong 4to. (8 x 10 2/5 inches). Unpaginated, but 192 pp. Title, Preface, 53 black and white collotypes on stiff card from White's glass negatives each with letterpress text description, and one large folding panorama of a monastery amid the Himalayas at rear. With a contemporary newspaper clipping laid in of a White photograph titled "The British Mission in Lhasa: The Chinese Amban on the Way to Pay a Visit to Colonel Younghusband" Original publisher's panelled burgundy cloth lettered gilt on front cover, all edges gilt, with patterned endpapers The very rare, gorgeous photobook of Sir Younghusband's colonial mission to Tibet, including one of the earliest published photographs of Mount Everest, in its original publisher's cloth. John Claude White's documentary photography of Sir Francis Younghusband's Mission to Lhasa is the most beautiful, and certainly the rarest, photobook about Tibet, and the Himalayan region in general. White's photographs, taken in 1903-4, were the earliest and most extensive published record of the area and its peoples to be seen in the West. However, the publication of Tibet and Lhasa was suppressed due to the British Government's fears that China would profit from having such detailed classified information about the route between Lhasa and the frontier of British India. White was a British political officer in Sikkim (India) and Bhutan known for his landscape photography. When Younghusband's expedition was formed, White had already been in Sikkim for at least fifteen years, as he had been a part of the expeditionary force in the Sikkim-Nepal war of 1888. He was asked to join the Tibet Frontier Commission as Joint-Commissioner under the command of Younghusband and the Brigadier-General J. R. L. MacDonald, joined by interpreter Captain Frederick O'Connor, and a guard of two hundred Indian troops. For the expedition, which was essentially a British government invasion and occupation of the only non-British controlled region of the Himalayas, White lugged a 13 x 10 inch camera, likely a Thornton-Pickard Royal Ruby, to officially record the journey. White was permitted to photograph Lhasa's monasteries, the only expedition member granted this privilege. The expedition's overarching aim was to force Tibetans into a trade relationship with British India. More specific aims included preventing Tibetan encroachment upon "British" territory in Sikkim, to compel the Tibetans to remove a customs post at Giao-gong, and to remove boundary pillars they had set up along the undisputed watershed between the Tista and the Ammno Chu. The Tibetans had also ostensibly insulted the treaty rights of the British by building a wall across the only road from Tibet to the market of Yatung, which had been thrown open to trade by the stipulations of the Convention of 1890-93. The real but unstated reason for the expedition was that the British feared China would hand Tibet to the Russians, and the British wished to prevent Russia from establishing a foothold in Tibet as it might threaten its interests in British India. Between 2,000 and 3,000 Tibetans were killed by the British during the year of Younghusband's Mission. "[White's] incomparable photographs have thus turned out to be the only lasting legacy of the ill-fated adventure of the Imperial Raj into Tibet." (Meyer) White's publisher Johnston and Hoffman advertised the publication in a promotional catalog in 1905, and according to their ads, White's images were initially issued individually or in albums, as half-tone or carbon prints. In 1907-08 the photos were issued in a two-volume set of albums, with descriptions by C. B. Bayley, but this publication was immediately withdrawn in fear that it revealed too many British secrets to the Chinese. Only six copies of this first set are known to have survived. The present single-volume edition was then published in 1908, but it, too, was immediately withdrawn. The British Library has no copy of this single volume edition. Only five libraries hold a copy, and these include the Field Museum and the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The collotype photos in this volume are titled, in order: Khambajong (2); Mount Everest from Khambajong; Group of Nuns; The Abbot at Khambajong; Chongu; The Amo Chu River; Phema, Bridge at Phema; Phari Jong; Samuda, Yaks in Ekkas; Gyantze Jong; The Goorkha Post; Nishi Kang Sang Glacier (2); View of the Yamdok Tso (2); The Tsangpo or Brahmaputra Valley; Chaksam Ferry (3); Two Views Up the Kyichu Valley (2); Troilung Bridge; Debung Monastery; A Group of Lamas of Debung Monastery; An Image in One of the Gumpas of Debung Monastery; Nejung Monastery (4); The Astrologer's Summer Residence; Sera Monastery; Street Scene in Sera Monastery; The Two Stewards and Senior Lamas of Sera Monastery; The Entrance to Lhasa; A Street Scene in Lhasa; A "Doring," or Monument; Outside the Jowo Khang; The Lingkhor, or Sacred Circular Road of Lhasa; The Potola (8); The Regent; The Shapes; Tongsa Penlop and His Retinue; The Chinese Amban; and a Panorama of Lhasa.
