EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Bombardment of Kinburn" takes us back to a significant moment in history during the Crimean War. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures the intensity and drama of a village under fire. The scene depicts a devastating bombing raid on Kinburn, Ukraine, which occurred on October 17th. The image showcases the destructive power unleashed upon this peaceful village as flames engulf buildings and smoke billows into the sky. The artist skillfully portrays the chaos and terror that accompanied such bombardments during wartime. As we gaze at this historical artwork, we are reminded of the horrors endured by innocent civilians caught in the crossfire of conflict. The engraving serves as a poignant reminder of how war can ravage communities and disrupt lives. Originally published in The Illustrated London News on November 10th, 1855, this illustration provides valuable insight into one aspect of the Crimean War's impact on local populations. It offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on humanity's capacity for destruction while also acknowledging resilience amidst adversity. Bridgeman Images has preserved this powerful piece from their private collection with great care. Through Fine Art Finder, we have access to these visual records that allow us to connect with our shared past and gain deeper understanding about historical events like the Bombardment of Kinburn.
