EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant lithograph captures the courageous spirit of Midshipman C D Lucas, RN, at Bomarsund in 1854. The image is part of a set of cigarette cards that pay homage to the esteemed Victoria Cross recipients. Published by John Player in the early 20th century, these cards serve as a visual testament to the bravery and heroism displayed by individuals like Lucas. In this particular scene, we see a young midshipman who would later become Rear-Admiral C D Lucas. He stands tall and resolute amidst the chaos of battle, embodying unwavering courage. The artist has skillfully depicted every detail - from his uniform adorned with medals to his determined expression - capturing the essence of a true hero. Bomarsund serves as an important backdrop for this momentous occasion. It was during this conflict that Lucas demonstrated exceptional valor and leadership skills that would shape his future career in the Royal Navy. This print not only commemorates one man's extraordinary exploits but also encourages us all to embrace good courage when faced with adversity. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are reminded of the immense sacrifices made by those who have come before us and inspired to find our own moments of bravery in our everyday lives.
