- On 17 September 1894 the Japanese Combined Fleet and the Chinese North Sea (Beiyang) Fleet engaged each other in the Yellow Sea off the mouth of the Yalu River (near Dagushan). Although both sides suffered heavy losses the number of ships and crew lost by the Chinese fleet was particularly high. This print shows a Japanese ship attacking a Chinese one.
