EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sketches of Crimea (engraving)" takes us back in time to the Crimean War era. The image showcases a collection of intricate sketches by Julian Portch, an artist active around 1855. These sketches were originally featured in The Illustrated Times on July 14th, 1855. The scene depicted in the engraving is filled with military elements and architectural details that transport us to the entrenchments and barracks of Crimea. We can observe French soldiers forming their formations while surrounded by stunning architecture and the vastness of the Sea of Azof. In particular, a lighthouse stands tall against the backdrop, guiding ships through these treacherous waters. The composition also offers glimpses into other European cultures present during this historical period. Yenikale, Ukraine is mentioned as well as Germany and France, highlighting their involvement in this conflict alongside England. As we delve into this print's rich details, it becomes evident that it not only captures a moment from history but also serves as a testament to European unity during times of war. It reminds us how different nations came together under challenging circumstances for a common cause. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this piece from its private collection, allowing viewers to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance today.
