EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the late 19th century, capturing the historical significance of The Barracks Hospital in Scutari, Turkey. This building served as a sanctuary for British soldiers wounded during the Crimean War from 1853 to 1856. Florence Nightingale, famously known as the Lady of the Lamp, dedicated her tireless efforts here in caring for these brave men. Illustrated by Robert Wilson in his renowned work "The Life & Times of Queen Victoria" this engraving transports us to a time when war ravaged this coastal country. Situated on the shores of the Bosphorus Strait, with its boats dotting the water transport routes, Istanbul's geography played an integral role in this historical narrative. The monochrome landscape showcases not only the architectural beauty of The Barracks Hospital but also highlights its location within Asia's enchanting Turkish region. As we gaze upon this print collector's masterpiece, we are reminded of Florence Nightingale's unwavering dedication and compassion towards those she cared for during such tumultuous times. Let us cherish this visual representation that encapsulates both history and humanity intertwined amidst war-torn landscapes. It serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst darkness and despair, there will always be individuals like Florence Nightingale who bring light and hope into our world.
