EDITORS COMMENTS
The Russian naval squadron in the Mediterranean, depicted in this vibrant colour lithograph by Henri Meyer, showcases the might and grandeur of the 19th-century Russian fleet. The print captures a historic moment when the squadron paid a visit to France, symbolizing an alliance between two powerful nations. The flags of Russia proudly wave atop each ship as they sail through the azure waters of the Mediterranean Sea. Amongst them are notable vessels such as Rynda, a first-class cruiser; Empereur-Nicolas Premier, an imposing battleship; Teretz, a premier-class gunboat; Pamiat-Azowa, another first-class cruiser; and Amiral-Nachimof, yet another impressive cruiser. This illustration originally appeared in Le Petit Journal on October 7th, 1893. It serves as a testament to both artistic skill and historical documentation. Each meticulously detailed ship represents not only military prowess but also the diplomatic ties that were forged during this era. As we gaze upon this print from our private collection today, we are transported back to a time when naval power was paramount. The image evokes admiration for these warships and pays homage to Tsar Nicholas I's navy and its presence in distant seas. Let us marvel at this snapshot of history – where art meets military might – forever preserved within this lithograph.
