EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative illustration, created by Richard Caton Woodville after a sketch by M. Bernard, depicts a pivotal moment during the Serbo-Bulgarian War of 1885. The war, which lasted from November 14 to November 28, was fought between the Principality of Bulgaria and the Kingdom of Serbia over the control of the southern Serbian city of Niš and the strategic railways connecting Bulgaria to Europe. In this image, Bulgarian soldiers are seen taking up positions in the Serbian town of Tzaribrod, now known as Dimitrovgrad. The soldiers, dressed in military uniforms and armed with rifles, appear determined and focused as they prepare for battle. The atmosphere is tense, with the looming threat of conflict palpable in the air. The illustration serves as a poignant reminder of the militaristic spirit that characterized Europe during this period, with armies and nations vying for power and control. This historical image, published in The Illustrated London News, provides a glimpse into the past, offering a visual representation of the events that shaped the political landscape of the Balkans in the late 19th century.
