Fortress of Yenikale Looking Towards the Sea of Azof, 1856 - A Glimpse into Crimean War History
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, captured by artist Georges McCulloch in 1856, offers a mesmerizing depiction of the Fortress of Yenikale during the tumultuous Crimean War. Originally constructed by the Ottomans between 1699 and 1706 on the Kertch peninsula, this formidable fortress stands as a testament to both architectural prowess and historical significance. Once conquered by Russians in the 1770s, it served as a military hospital until its eventual abandonment in the late 1880s. In this image, we witness an intriguing scene unfolding before us - men bustling about on boats near the shore while others stand atop the fortress walls gazing out towards the vast expanse of sea. The lithograph showcases vibrant colors that bring to life not only the physical structure but also highlights its strategic location amidst breathtaking natural surroundings. The arrival of pontoon boats adds an element of movement and anticipation to this snapshot from history. As we delve deeper into this artwork from William Simpson's publication "The Seat of War in East" we are transported back to a time when conflict shaped nations and alliances were tested. This print serves as a reminder that even within seemingly impenetrable fortresses like Yenikale, history unfolds with every passing moment. With each glance at this remarkable piece, one cannot help but marvel at how art has preserved moments such as these for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
