EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Campaign in Asia, with the Turks" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into a significant historical event. The image showcases the Russo-Turkish War, an intense military campaign that unfolded in Asia. As we explore this print, our attention is immediately drawn to the Abkhasian mountaineers who stand tall and proud amidst a dense forest in Georgia. These fierce warriors were known for their bravery and played a crucial role in this conflict. In the foreground of the engraving, we see Turkish soldiers stationed at an outpost. Their presence signifies both strength and vulnerability as they navigate through unfamiliar terrain while defending their position against advancing forces. The artist skillfully captures the tension and drama of war by contrasting light and shadow throughout the composition. The intricate details bring life to each element of this scene - from every leaf on trees to every expression on faces. This historic artwork was originally published as an illustration for The Graphic on September 8th, 1877. It serves as a visual record of one chapter within this tumultuous period in history. Through this print, we are transported back in time; it allows us to reflect upon past conflicts while appreciating both the artistic talent behind its creation and its significance within our collective human story.
