EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic destruction of the "Etna". Floating Battery, an engraving by Edwin Weedon. The image showcases a chaotic scene filled with ships, fires, and devastation. The floating battery was located in Millwall, London and belonged to Messers Scott Russell Company. The intensity of the fire is evident as flames engulf the Etna Floating Battery, leaving behind only remnants of its once mighty structure. This historical moment was immortalized in The Illustrated London News on 12 May 1855. The composition of this engraving is truly remarkable; it draws viewers into the heart of the action and allows them to witness firsthand the power and destructive force unleashed upon this maritime vessel. It serves as a testament to both man's ingenuity in constructing such impressive structures and nature's ability to overpower even our most advanced creations. As we gaze at this print, we are reminded of the fragility of human endeavors when faced with unforeseen circumstances. The remains left behind serve as a haunting reminder that no matter how grand or invincible something may seem, it can be reduced to ashes within moments. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this historic moment for us all to reflect upon. Through their careful curation and preservation efforts, they allow us access to these significant events from our past – events that shaped our world and continue to captivate our imaginations today.
