The Occupation of Cyprus, Sketches at Larnaca
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that takes us back to the year 1878. This historical print, created by John Charles Dollman and now part of a private collection, offers a glimpse into the military occupation of Cyprus during that time. The scene depicted in the engraving showcases various elements of this occupation. On the shores of Larnaca, we see an array of military boats and naval vessels anchored near a bustling pier. Soldiers on horseback can be seen patrolling the area while others engage in hunting activities nearby. The presence of troops and armed forces gives us insight into the intense atmosphere prevailing during this period. In addition to capturing military life, Dollman's sketch also highlights civilian aspects. A building stands prominently in the background, representing an important structure within this occupied territory. We can also observe a camp set up along with several tents indicating temporary settlements for soldiers. The inclusion of boats and tugboats suggests ongoing transport activities between Cyprus and other locations under occupation. This emphasizes not only the strategic importance but also the logistical challenges faced by those involved in maintaining control over this Mediterranean island. Overall, "The Occupation of Cyprus" engraving provides viewers with an intriguing visual narrative that combines both military and civilian perspectives from one significant moment in history. It serves as a reminder of how art can immortalize historical events for generations to come.
