EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1882 engraving titled "Arrival of the Latest British Refugee on Board the 'Rosina' in Alexandria Harbour" takes us back in time to a significant moment in history. The image, with its retro-styled and vintage appeal, showcases an illustrative technique that beautifully captures the essence of this landmark event. The scene unfolds at Alexandria Harbour, a bustling port known for its vibrant shipping and cargo activities. A majestic ship named "Rosina" dominates the frame as it gracefully glides through the body of salty water towards the dock. This vessel serves as a symbol of hope and freedom for countless refugees seeking solace from their troubled homeland. Intriguingly, we witness the arrival of one such refugee - a British individual who has sought refuge aboard this very ship. Their journey across the vast ocean is finally coming to fruition as they step foot onto Egyptian soil, greeted by both uncertainty and new possibilities. Through this engraving, we are transported back to an era where nautical travel was not only essential but also filled with adventure and anticipation. The attention to detail in every stroke highlights Victorian artistic excellence while offering us insight into historical events that shaped our world. As we admire this remarkable piece from Liszt Collection's Arkheia series, let us reflect upon how art can serve as a powerful medium for preserving our cultural heritage and reminding us of humanity's enduring resilience throughout time.
