EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sebastopol from the Rear of Fort Nicholas" takes us back in time to the mid-19th century. The image, which is a plate from "The Seat of War in the East" published by Paul & Dominic Colnaghi & Co. in 1856, captures an intriguing perspective of Sebastopol, a town located in Crimea. From this vantage point at Fort Nicholas, we can see the bustling harbor and bay filled with ships and boats. The town itself stretches out before us, revealing its architectural charm and historical significance. It's fascinating to observe the soldiers stationed within the fortifications, their presence reminding us of the turbulent times during which this photograph was taken. The inclusion of cannons scattered throughout further emphasizes Sebastopol's status as a Russian naval base during that era. These powerful weapons symbolize both protection and potential destruction. Engraved with meticulous detail by William Simpson, this lithograph showcases his talent for capturing not only physical landscapes but also historical narratives through artistry. Preserved within a private collection belonging to The Stapleton Collection today, this print serves as a valuable piece of history. As we gaze upon this remarkable engraving from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back to an era long gone but forever etched into our collective memory.
