EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Troops at Alexandria, Part of the Egyptian Contingent for the Turkish Army" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a scene filled with street scenes and military presence. The image transports us to Alexandria, Egypt, where we witness an impressive display of architecture intertwined with the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The city's vibrant streets serve as a backdrop for troops from the Egyptian contingent who have joined forces with the Turkish Army. The soldiers stand tall and proud, their uniforms reflecting their allegiance to both Egypt and Turkey. Their disciplined formation exudes strength and unity as they prepare themselves for whatever lies ahead. It is through this engraving that we catch a glimpse into the lives of these brave men who dedicated themselves to serving their countries. Published in The Illustrated London News on April 8th, 1854, this illustration offers viewers an insight into international alliances during that era. Beyond its historical significance, it also highlights how art can capture moments frozen in time – allowing future generations to reflect upon past events. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are fortunate enough to appreciate this remarkable piece today. As we gaze upon it now, let us remember those who fought bravely for causes greater than themselves while admiring the artistic mastery behind capturing such poignant moments in history.
