Created by Charles Robinson in 1868, this print showcases a significant event that took place in Chatham, Kent. The image depicts an intense assault on the Redan, a fortified structure, using a flying bridge. Intriguingly detailed and expertly executed, this engraving offers viewers a glimpse into the chaos and bravery of siege operations during that era. The attackers can be seen maneuvering their way towards the Redan with determination and precision. The flying bridge itself is an impressive feat of engineering as it allows troops to cross over obstacles swiftly. This historical artwork was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on August 15th, 1868. It serves as both an informative news item and a captivating visual representation of warfare tactics employed during sieges. With its depiction of military strategy unfolding against the backdrop of Thames Estuary's waters, this print transports us back to a time when battles were fought with grit and ingenuity.
