EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Picture-Model of the Town and Forts of Sebastopol, at the Surrey Zoological Gardens" takes us back to 19th century London. The image showcases a meticulously crafted model that depicts the town and forts of Sebastopol, located in Crimea, Ukraine. Displayed at the Surrey Zoological Gardens, this intricate picture-model offers a unique glimpse into the topography and architecture of Sebastopol during that time period. Every detail is carefully etched onto the print, allowing viewers to explore the layout of the town and its formidable forts. The Illustrated London News featured this illustration on June 2nd, 1855, capturing public interest with its accurate representation of an important military stronghold during the Crimean War. This historical context adds depth to our understanding as we admire this work from Bridgeman Images' collection. As we study this engraving today, it serves as a reminder not only of artistic skill but also of how people in Victorian England sought knowledge about distant places through exhibitions like those held at zoological gardens. It invites us to appreciate both artistry and curiosity as essential elements in understanding history.
