EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the aftermath of a devastating event in history - the Bombardment of the Anglo-Dutch Fleet on 27th August 1816, specifically focusing on the fire that engulfed the Wharves of Algiers. The image showcases four episodes during the presence of the fleet in the Bay of Algiers from 26th to 27th August. The chaos and destruction are palpable as flames consume the shipyards in Algiers' port, just moments after being targeted by bombs from the Anglo-Dutch fleet. On one side, a warship stands ominously, serving as a stark reminder of the violence that unfolded. Nicols Baur skillfully captured this scene between 1816 and 1820 using oil paint on panel. The composition measures approximately 55 cm in height and 76 cm in width, providing an intimate glimpse into this historical moment. This print from Liszt Collection serves as a powerful testament to both human resilience and devastation caused by conflict. It reminds us of our shared past and encourages reflection upon how such events have shaped our present world. Let it serve as a poignant reminder to strive for peace and understanding amidst turbulent times.
