EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "Off Kinburn, 17 October, the Main-Deck of the Terrible, 'Make Ready!'" takes us back to a significant moment during the Crimean War. Created by Edmond Morin in 1855 and now part of a private collection, this artwork offers a glimpse into the intense atmosphere aboard the Royal Navy ship Terrible. In this scene, we find ourselves on the main deck of the vessel as preparations for battle are underway. The artist skillfully captures the tension and determination etched on each sailor's face as they ready themselves for combat. The cannons stand tall and imposing, symbolizing both power and destruction. The date mentioned in the title refers to an event that occurred off Kinburn on October 17th. It was during this time that British naval forces played a crucial role in supporting land operations against Russian fortifications. This particular illustration originally appeared in The Illustrated Times on November 10th, providing readers with a visual representation of one aspect of this historic conflict. As we observe this piece today, it serves as a reminder not only of past military endeavors but also pays homage to those who served their country with bravery and dedication. Through Morin's expert craftsmanship and attention to detail, viewers can almost feel themselves transported onto that main deck alongside these courageous sailors preparing for battle in defense of their nation.
