EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sebastopol from the Sea" takes us back to a significant moment in history - the Crimean War. Engraved by T. Picken and published by Colnaghi & Co. in 1855, this colour lithograph offers a glimpse into the seat of war in the East. The image showcases Sebastopol, a Russian port city on the Black Sea coast, as seen from the deck of HMS Sidon. The gun deck is bustling with sailors and naval personnel, ready for battle. The coastal landscape stretches out before them, highlighting the strategic importance of this location during the conflict. Intricate details bring this scene to life - cannons dotting the ship's deck symbolize its firepower while troops can be seen preparing for action nearby. This print serves as a visual testament to both British naval power and their involvement in armed forces during this tumultuous time. Preserved at London's National Army Museum, it stands as an important historical artifact associated with one of Britain's most significant military campaigns. As we admire this artwork today, we are reminded of those who fought bravely and sacrificed their lives for their respective nations' causes during that era. Bridgeman Images has ensured that this remarkable piece remains accessible to all who wish to delve into its rich historical context and appreciate its artistic value without commercial restrictions or limitations on use.
