This engraving titled "Bombardment of Bomarsund" takes us back to the 19th century, immersing us in a scene of intense maritime warfare. The print showcases the valiant battle that took place during the Crimean War, specifically at the village of Bomarsund in the Aland Islands. The image depicts a fierce clash between ships and forts, as they exchange heavy bombardments along the Baltic Sea coastline. The round fort and long fort stand tall amidst billowing smoke, while riflemen take aim from strategic positions. The masked battery adds an air of mystery to this coastal scene, intensifying the drama unfolding before our eyes.
