EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Attack on the Redan, sketched from the Woronzow Road" transports us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Julian Portch around 1855, this print captures the intensity and drama of the Crimean War. As we gaze upon this artwork, our eyes are immediately drawn to the chaotic scene unfolding before us. The artist skillfully depicts a military assault on the Redan fortress with meticulous attention to detail. The smoke-filled air obscures our view but adds an element of suspense and urgency. The composition is carefully crafted, allowing us to witness both sides of this conflict. On one side, we see brave attackers charging forward with determination and courage. Their uniforms bear witness to their allegiance as they risk their lives for victory. On the other side stands the formidable Redan fortress, its walls seemingly impenetrable. The setting itself plays a crucial role in conveying the gravity of this event. Sketched from Woronzow Road in Ukraine's Crimea region, it serves as a reminder that wars have far-reaching consequences beyond just those directly involved. This engraving was originally published in The Illustrated Times on October 13th, 1855—a testament to its significance as breaking news during that era. Today, through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we can appreciate not only Portch's artistic talent but also gain insight into an important historical event that shaped nations and left an indelible mark on human history—the Crime
