EDITORS COMMENTS
The War in Asia Minor, Battle of Jahnilar, 18 August (engraving) captures the intensity and chaos of a significant moment in history. This powerful image, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, depicts the fierce clash between Turkish and Russian forces during the Russo-Turkish War. The scene is set amidst the rugged terrain of Anatolia, with hills and valleys serving as a backdrop to this dramatic confrontation. Turkish commander Chevket Pasha leads his troops from a strategic position on a terrace while Russian infantry and batteries advance relentlessly towards them. The air is filled with smoke from guns firing on both sides. Notable figures such as Hassan Pasha, Rashid Pasha, Ali Pasha, and Moukhtar Pasha can be seen engaged in combat or strategizing their next move. Austrian forces under Baron Schluga also make an appearance, highlighting international involvement in this conflict. This engraving was originally published as an illustration for The Illustrated London News in September 1877. Its detailed depiction of topography and military action provides viewers with a glimpse into the realities faced by soldiers fighting for control over Asia Minor. Through this print's historical significance and artistic execution, it serves as a testament to the bravery and sacrifice exhibited by those involved in one of Asia Minor's most pivotal battles.
