EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Petroleum Oil Works of Baku, on the Caspian, Railway Trucks for Oil" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the bustling oil industry in Azerbaijan. The image showcases a scene at the heart of Baku's petroleum works, where railway trucks are being loaded with precious oil. The composition is rich in historical significance as it was originally published in The Illustrated London News on July 10,1886. It serves as a testament to the rapid growth and importance of Baku's oil industry during that era. In this print by an anonymous English School artist from the 19th century, we witness workers meticulously loading barrels onto railway trucks against a backdrop of towering industrial structures. The sheer scale and magnitude of these operations highlight the immense value placed on petroleum during this period. The location itself adds another layer of intrigue to this artwork - situated on the shores of the Caspian Sea, Baku served as a vital hub for global trade routes. Its strategic position allowed for efficient transportation and distribution of oil across continents. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand how railways played an integral role in propelling Azerbaijan's petroleum industry forward. This engraving stands as both an artistic masterpiece and a window into history – reminding us of mankind's relentless pursuit for progress and innovation.
