EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "With the Russians" takes us back to a significant moment in history during the Russo-Turkish War. Created by William Ralston in 1877, this print showcases a scene filled with military action and tension. The image depicts a cautious movement of Russian soldiers amidst Turkish fire. In the foreground, we witness a dummy Cossack regiment strategically placed as part of their tactical approach. The artist skillfully captures the intensity and uncertainty that permeated this conflict. As our eyes wander through the composition, we cannot help but notice an intriguing Bulgarian atrocity being captured by these brave Russian troops. A Turkish major is seen being lassoed by a swift Cossack soldier, symbolizing their triumph over their adversaries. Ralston's attention to detail brings life to each figure present in this drawing. The determination on the faces of both Russians and Turks reflects the high stakes nature of war. This historical artwork offers us a glimpse into one chapter of human struggle for power and dominance. It serves as a reminder of how conflicts shape nations and individuals alike. Now preserved within private collections, this engraving continues to captivate viewers with its vivid portrayal of bravery, strategy, and victory amidst chaos.
