EDITORS COMMENTS
This hand-coloured engraving, titled "Map of the Battle of the Nile" offers a remarkable glimpse into one of history's most significant naval conflicts. Published by William Blackwood and Sons in 1848, this print showcases Alexander Keith Johnston's masterful cartography skills. The Battle of the Nile took place from 1st to 3rd August 1798 during the French Revolutionary Wars. This aerial view map provides an intricate depiction of Aboukir Bay, where the battle unfolded. The positions of ships and boats are meticulously illustrated, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the strategic intricacies that determined victory or defeat. As we examine this historical artifact, it becomes evident that it is not merely a map but a window into a pivotal moment in time. The Royal Navy's valiant efforts against French forces are brought to life through Johnston's detailed engravings. From majestic warships to humble tugboats used for transport, every vessel plays its part on this vast canvas. Beyond its military significance, this engraving also serves as a testament to Scotland's rich artistic heritage. Hailing from Edinburgh & London, William Blackwood and Sons were renowned publishers known for their commitment to quality craftsmanship. Now preserved within a private collection, this rare piece allows us to appreciate both its artistic merit and historical importance. It stands as an enduring reminder of bravery exhibited by armed forces and pays homage to those who fought gallantly during this monumental sea battle at Aboukir Bay over two centuries ago.
