EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Sebastopol as it is, the Harbour, with Forts Constantine and Michael in the Distance" takes us back to 19th century Crimea. The print showcases a picturesque view of Sebastopol's bustling harbor, framed by the majestic Forts Constantine and Michael in the distance. The artist skillfully captures the topography of this historic Ukrainian city, highlighting its strategic location on the Crimean Peninsula. The harbor teems with activity as ships sail in and out, carrying goods and people from distant lands. The water sparkles under the golden rays of sunlight, creating a serene atmosphere that contrasts with the fortresses' imposing presence. Forts Constantine and Michael stand tall against the horizon, serving as guardians of Sebastopol's maritime defenses. Their sturdy walls evoke a sense of strength and resilience amidst an ever-changing world. These forts witnessed significant historical events during their existence, including conflicts such as the Crimean War. This engraving originally appeared in Illustrated Times on November 26th, 1870 - offering readers a glimpse into life in Sebastopol at that time. Today, it serves as an invaluable window into history for art enthusiasts and historians alike. Thanks to Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, we can appreciate this remarkable piece from our past. It reminds us of both Sebastopol's rich heritage and its enduring connection to global trade routes throughout centuries gone by
