EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph depicts the Siege of Sevastopol during the Crimean War, which took place between 1853 and 1856. The siege itself lasted from September 1854 to July 1855, with the Russian forces, led by General Pavel Nikolayevich Lvov, defending the city against the combined forces of the Ottoman Empire and European allies, including the British and French. The image captures the intensity and determination of the battle, with soldiers from both sides locked in a fierce struggle. The city of Sevastopol, located in the Crimean region of Ukraine, was a key strategic point in the conflict due to its proximity to the Black Sea and the vital supply lines it protected. The siege resulted in a significant Russian defeat, leading to the eventual end of the war and the signing of the Treaty of Paris in 1856. This historic lithograph is a testament to the bravery and tenacity of the soldiers involved in the conflict, as well as the broader geopolitical tensions that fueled the militarism and militarist attitudes of the time. The use of color and intricate detail in the engraving adds to its visual impact and historical significance.
