The Fall of Plevna, The Wounded Osman-Pashah before Alexander II (1818-1881), 1880
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that captures a significant moment in history. Painted by Aleksei Danilovich Kivshenko, this watercolor on paper artwork measures 33x44 cm and is currently housed in the Central Naval Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. The painting depicts the aftermath of the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-78, specifically focusing on the fall of Plevna. In the center of the composition lies Osman-Pashah, a wounded Turkish military leader who fought valiantly against Russian forces. Surrounding him are soldiers from both sides, creating an atmosphere filled with tension and emotion. Intriguing details such as soldiers' boots and minarets add depth to this historical scene. The artist's attention to detail transports viewers back to the 19th century, allowing them to witness this pivotal moment firsthand. Notably present is Emperor Alexander II (1818-1881) himself, standing tall amidst a gathering crowd. As one gazes at his regal figure juxtaposed with wounded soldiers and damaged buildings, it becomes evident that he holds immense power over their fate. This powerful image serves as a reminder of the human cost of war and highlights both heroism and suffering simultaneously. It encapsulates not only historical events but also evokes empathy for those affected by conflict throughout time. As
