EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking image captures a pivotal moment in the history of Algeria and Europe's colonial expansion in Africa. The photograph, titled "The quarter-deck of the 'Queen Charlotte', Lord Exmouth's flagship, at the bombardment of Algiers," was taken in 1816 during the Bombardment of Algiers, a military operation led by British Admiral Lord Exmouth to force the Dey of Algiers to end piracy against European merchant ships. The image shows the quarter-deck of the HMS Queen Charlotte, Lord Exmouth's flagship, with its crew members at the ready during the bombardment. The ship's cannons are trained on the city of Algiers in the background, smoke rising from the impact of previous shots. The scene is one of intense focus and determination, as the British fleet prepared to bring an end to the threat of piracy in the Mediterranean. The Bombardment of Algiers was a significant event in European history, marking the beginning of France's colonization of Algeria in 1830. The operation also highlighted the growing power and influence of European naval forces in the Mediterranean and beyond. This photograph offers a glimpse into a pivotal moment in history, providing a window into the past and the complex geopolitical dynamics of the time. The HMS Queen Charlotte, a 110-gun first-rate ship of the line, was one of the most powerful and impressive vessels in the British Royal Navy at the time. Launched in 1810, she served in the Napoleonic Wars and saw action in several major battles, including the Battle of Trafalgar. This photograph is a testament to the ship's historical significance and the important role it played in shaping the world we know today.
