EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print, published in a German newspaper in 1915, depicts the beginning of the Battle of Varna, a major naval engagement during World War I. The scene shows a fleet of German submarines and Bulgarian warships setting out to sea, preparing to confront the advancing Russian fleet. The Russian ships are seen bombarding the Bulgarian port city of Varna on the Black Sea in the background. The perspective is from the enemy's side, providing a dramatic and tense portrayal of the impending clash. The German and Bulgarian forces were determined to protect their territories from Russian expansion, and this battle marked a turning point in the Eastern Front of the war. The print captures the intensity and uncertainty of the moment, as the two sides prepared to engage in a fierce and potentially decisive battle on the open waters of the Black Sea. The date of the event is October 27, 1915.
