EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, created by Vasili Fedorovich Timm in 1856, depicts a grand ceremony in Moscow to welcome the triumphant participants in the Siege of Sevastopol defense during the Crimean War (1853-1856). The image captures the jubilant atmosphere as soldiers, their faces etched with the marks of battle and the cold Russian winter, return home after a long and arduous campaign. The snow-covered landscape adds to the sense of history and age, as the defenders embrace their loved ones, their bayonets resting on the ground, a testament to their victory. The engraving, held in the Museum of Heroic Defense and Liberation of Sevastopol in Ukraine, is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during this pivotal moment in Russian history. The contemporary viewer is transported back in time, witnessing the raw emotion and pride of the soldiers and the people of Russia as they celebrate their comeback from the siege.
