EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Preparing to make Signals" takes us back to the 19th century during the Crimean War. The image showcases a scene of intense activity as soldiers in their uniforms gather on a hilltop overlooking the vast landscape of Crimea. The attention to detail is remarkable, with every figure meticulously engraved, capturing the tension and anticipation that fills the air. These brave men are preparing to send signals, using flags or other means, perhaps communicating vital information or coordinating military strategies. The composition skillfully combines elements of topography and human presence, highlighting both the natural beauty of Ukraine's Crimean Peninsula and the harsh reality of war. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought in this historic conflict. This particular print is part of a private collection and was originally published in The Illustrated London News on August 4th, 1855. Its inclusion in Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection allows us to appreciate not only its artistic value but also its historical significance. Bridgeman Images has once again provided art enthusiasts with an opportunity to delve into our past through this evocative portrayal of wartime preparation.
