EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Tcherkersseians on a Raid near the Black Sea, plate 4" takes us back to the rugged landscapes of the Caucasus in the mid-19th century. The print, engraved by Eugene Ciceri and Adolphe Jean-Baptiste Bayot and published by Alfred Leon Lemercier in Paris in 1847, showcases the remarkable talent of Grigori Grigorevich Gagarin. In this scene, we witness a daring raid conducted by Tcherkersseian warriors as they charge through a river crossing with incredible speed. Mounted on their majestic horses, these fierce horsemen navigate through the mountainous terrain with precision and determination. Their equestrian skills are truly awe-inspiring. The composition captures both the intensity of their attack and the beauty of their surroundings. The intricate engravings bring to life every detail - from each warrior's determined expression to every ripple in the water beneath them. It is evident that Gagarin has masterfully depicted not only an action-packed moment but also a glimpse into everyday life for these Circassian warriors. This lithograph offers viewers a window into history, showcasing both cultural traditions and military prowess during this tumultuous period in Caucasia. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we can't help but be transported back to an era where bravery met breathtaking landscapes - forever immortalized through artistry and skillful craftsmanship.
