EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Flags borne in Procession" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by the talented artist Raffet, Denis Auguste Marie, this print captures a scene from the Crimean War era. In this illustration for The Illustrated Times on November 3rd, 1855, we witness a grand ceremonial procession. The flags held high by soldiers proudly flutter against the backdrop of an unknown cityscape. These vibrant symbols represent different nations involved in the conflict. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every fold and crease of each flag is meticulously depicted. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost hear the rhythmic drumbeats and feel the anticipation that fills the air. "The Flags borne in Procession" not only showcases military might but also highlights the importance of ceremony during times of war. This visual narrative invites us to reflect on how such events shape our collective memory and honor those who have fought bravely. Now preserved within a private collection, this engraving serves as a powerful reminder of historical moments that should never be forgotten. It stands as both an artistic masterpiece and an invaluable historical artifact capturing one chapter within humanity's complex tapestry.
