EDITORS COMMENTS
This 1877 engraving from the Liszt Collection takes us back in time to witness a significant moment during "The War in the East, with the Turks". The scene unfolds at Constantinople, now known as Istanbul, where a grand review of transports and ironclads is taking place before the majestic Palace of Dolma-Bagtchaa. This event marks the departure of an expeditionary force bound for Soukhoum Kalaa. The image showcases a bustling body of salty water, perhaps representing the sea or an oceanic inlet, teeming with various ships and vessels engaged in shipping and cargo transport. The artist's illustrative technique brings this historical moment to life through intricate engravings that capture every detail. As we delve into this vintage masterpiece, we are transported to an era defined by Victorian arts and culture. The retro-styled print exudes a sense of nostalgia while shedding light on a pivotal chapter in history. It serves as both a reminder of past conflicts and an appreciation for artistic expression through engravement. While gazing upon this remarkable piece, one cannot help but marvel at the grandeur of Dolma-Bagtchaa Palace standing proudly against Istanbul's skyline. Its architectural beauty echoes that of a castle or stately home, evoking images of power and opulence. In essence, this enchanting engraving offers us not only a glimpse into history but also invites us to appreciate art's ability to transcend time and preserve moments forever etched within its strokes.
