The Bombardment of Copenhagen and Surrender of the Danish Fleet, September 1807
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a pivotal moment in history when British forces achieved victory over the Danish fleet. This powerful engraving, published by John Fairburn in 1807, showcases the intense battle that unfolded in Copenhagen's harbor. In this dramatic scene, we witness a fierce exchange between warships and coastal batteries. Cannon fire fills the air as smoke billows from both sides. The British squadron led by Admiral Gambier strategically maneuvers amidst windmills and block ships to gain control over the Scandinavian fleet. The image also highlights the citadel's resistance against relentless bombardment while gunboats and howitzers provide support from afar. The Isle of Amack stands witness to this historic event as troops from both armies engage in combat on land. This print not only commemorates a significant military triumph but also serves as a testament to naval power during this era. It showcases the might of Britain's armed forces and their ability to secure victories even against formidable opponents. Displayed at London's National Army Museum, this artwork offers viewers an immersive experience into one of Denmark's most critical moments in history. As we gaze upon it, we are reminded of the bravery and determination displayed by those involved in this monumental battle for supremacy on both sea and land.
