EDITORS COMMENTS
October 25, 1854: The First Line Reaches the Russian Guns at Balaclava - The Charge of the Light Brigade This historic photograph, taken from the account of the famous painting by the English artist Sir Edwin Henry Landseer, captures the pivotal moment of the Charge of the Light Brigade during the Crimean War. The event took place on October 25, 1854, near the village of Balaclava in Crimea. In this image, the first line of the British Light Cavalry, led by Lord Raglan, is shown reaching the Russian guns. The charge, which was ordered despite the misunderstood instructions, was a daring and reckless attack against a numerically superior Russian force. The charge was initiated by Lord Raglan in response to a perceived threat to the British supply depot at Balaclava. The Light Brigade, consisting of the 11th and 13th Hussars, the 17th and 21st Lancers, and the 16th and 17th Lancers, numbered around 673 men and 700 horses. They charged with great courage and determination, but the confusion of orders and the unexpectedly strong Russian defense resulted in heavy losses. Despite the devastating casualty rate, the Charge of the Light Brigade became a symbol of British heroism and determination during the Crimean War. The event is commemorated in Tennyson's famous poem, "The Charge of the Light Brigade," which immortalized the bravery and sacrifice of the soldiers involved. This photograph, taken from the painting by Sir Edwin Henry Landseer, provides a vivid and evocative depiction of this pivotal moment in history. The determination and courage of the Light Brigade, as they reach the Russian guns, is palpable in this powerful image.
