EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Kamiesch, 1856" takes us back to a significant episode of the Crimean War. Painted by the talented artist Edmund Walker, it depicts the French Army's occupation of Kamiesch on the west coast during the Battle of Balaclava in 1854. The scene is bustling with activity as men and horses fill the streets, creating a sense of urgency and military presence. The composition beautifully captures an outdoor setting, showcasing a coastal country lane lined with barrels and occupied by soldiers on horseback. The vibrant colors bring life to this historical moment, transporting us back to the 19th century when armed forces fought for control over Sevastopol. William Simpson's publication "The Seat of War in the East" serves as a valuable source for understanding this period in history. Through his lithograph technique, Simpson immortalizes this particular battle within occupied territory. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of the bravery and sacrifices made during times of conflict. It stands as a testament to human resilience and serves as an important reminder of our shared history.
