EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative black and white print depicts Lord Fitzroy James Henry Somerset, 1st Baron Raglan, Master-General of the Ordnance of British Troops in the Crimea, strategically planning the attack on the town of Sebastopol during the Crimean War. The scene takes place at The Quarries Field, which served as Lord Raglan's headquarters off Sebastopol. The year is 1854, and the disputed territory of Crimea, Ukraine, was a focal point of military tension between Britain and Russia. In the image, Lord Raglan is seen deep in discussion with military commanders, surrounded by a sea of men in uniform, all focused intently on the battle plans. The British line is illustrated to the right, with General Canrobert stationed at the Maison d'Eau on the left of the British line, and on the right of the French position. Lord Raglan's headquarters at The Quarries served as a vital lookout point, providing a clear view of the enemy defences. This engraving was originally published in the Illustrated London News, offering a unique glimpse into the military strategy and planning that took place during the Crimean War. The image captures the intensity and gravity of the situation, with Lord Raglan and his commanders carefully considering their next move in the face of adversity. The print is a testament to the meticulous planning and determination that characterized the British military during this pivotal moment in history.
