EDITORS COMMENTS
The Battle of Navarino, fought on October 20, 1827, was a pivotal moment in the Greek War of Independence (1821-32). This engraving, in vibrant colors, depicts the Allied forces of Britain, France, and Russia, anchored in the Bay of Navarino, off the coast of the Peloponnese in the Mediterranean Sea. The Ottoman Empire, represented by the sails in the distance, were defeated in this naval engagement, marking a significant victory for the Greek revolutionaries seeking independence from Ottoman rule. The Ionian Sea became the stage for this historic battle, with the Allied armada outnumbering the Ottoman fleet three to one. The combined might of the British, French, and Russian navies proved too strong for the Ottoman forces, leading to the surrender of the Ottoman fleet and the eventual success of the Greek revolution. This engraving serves as a testament to the strategic importance of naval power in shaping the political landscape of the Mediterranean and the broader European continent during this period of conflict and change.
