EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense Bombardment of Kil-Bouroun at the mouth of the River Dnieper by the French fleet during a crucial moment in history. Taken from "Nos Souvenirs de Kil-Bouroun pendant L Hiver passe dans Le Liman du Dnieper" this lithograph engraving, created by Eugene Ciceri and published around 1860, provides a vivid record of a French naval expedition in Crimea. The image showcases the sheer power and force unleashed by the French fleet as they engage in battle against Russian troops and defenses. Led by Admiral Bruat, warships dominate the scene with their cannons firing relentlessly upon their enemies. The coastline is engulfed in flames and ruins, depicting the devastating aftermath of this fierce engagement. Every detail within this print reflects both the chaos and strategic precision involved in naval bombardments. The sea rages on as smoke billows from every direction, creating an atmosphere filled with tension and uncertainty. This historical event serves as a testament to human determination amidst conflict. Preserved within a private collection, this remarkable piece offers viewers an opportunity to delve into maritime warfare history. It not only highlights significant moments during the Anglo-French war against Russia but also pays homage to those who fought valiantly for their respective nations. As we gaze upon this engraving, we are reminded of both humanity's capacity for destruction and our relentless pursuit of victory on treacherous seas.
