EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "Russian Troops entering the City of Khiva at the Hazar-Asp Gate" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a pivotal event that occurred in Central Asia. Intriguingly, we witness Russian troops making their way into the ancient city of Khiva through the imposing Hazar-Asp Gate. The fortifications surrounding the city walls stand tall and formidable, emphasizing its strategic importance. This scene transports us to a time when military conquests shaped nations and borders. The detailed depiction allows us to appreciate both the architectural grandeur of Khiva's fortress walls and the diversity of its inhabitants. As Russian soldiers march forward, they encounter Uzbek locals observing their arrival with curiosity and apprehension. This interaction between conquerors and conquered adds depth to our understanding of this historical event. This engraving originally appeared as an illustration for The Illustrated London News on November 22nd, 1873. It serves as a testament to how art can capture moments frozen in time, allowing future generations to reflect upon past triumphs or conflicts.
