EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we are transported back to the historic events of 21st March 1801 during "The Battle of Alexandria". The image depicts a scene filled with intensity and drama, as General Abercrombie sits wounded amidst the chaos. Engraved by A. Cardon in 1806 after an original work by Philippe de Loutherbourg, this stipple engraving offers us a glimpse into a pivotal moment in history. Lieutenant General Ralph Abercrombie takes center stage, his presence commanding attention despite his injuries. Surrounding him are soldiers engaged in fierce combat on horseback, their determination evident as gun smoke fills the air. The battlefield is alive with energy and motion, capturing both the brutality and bravery that defined this significant clash. As we delve deeper into this historical masterpiece, we witness not only the clash of armies but also nature's role in shaping events. Clouds loom ominously overhead, reflecting meteorological conditions that added further complexity to an already tumultuous day.
