EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, titled "The Siege of Silistria, (1854), 1890" offers a poignant glimpse into the tumultuous events that unfolded during the Crimean War. The image depicts a historic moment when Russian forces laid siege to the Ottoman fortress of Silistra in Bulgaria. In this monochrome scene, we witness the intensity of warfare as men engage in combat on the front lines. Armed with bayonets and swords, soldiers bravely face their adversaries amidst billowing smoke and darkness. The engraving captures both the chaos and determination that defined this critical period in history. The unknown creator skillfully portrays the harrowing reality faced by those caught up in war's grip. Each figure is meticulously etched, revealing their exhaustion, wounds, and unwavering resolve. This portrait serves as a testament to human resilience even amidst deathly circumstances. Taken from Edmund Ollier's renowned book "Cassells Illustrated Universal History" published in 1890 by Cassell and Company Ltd. , this print transports us back to a time when nations clashed for power on battlefields far from home. As we gaze upon this evocative artwork today, let us remember those who fought valiantly during these historical conflicts.
