The engraving titled "First Landing of the Royal Horse Artillery in the Bosphorus" captures a significant moment during the Crimean War. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a historical event that took place in Turkey's central region. The illustration was originally published in The Illustrated London News on June 3,1854. In this scene, we witness a fleet of majestic ships gracefully navigating through the iconic Bosphorus strait. As they approach land, members of the Royal Horse Artillery disembark onto Turkish soil for their first landing. This pivotal moment symbolizes the beginning of their involvement and contribution to the ongoing conflict. The artwork not only highlights maritime elements but also offers glimpses into Turkish culture and European influences within its composition. It serves as a visual reminder of how different cultures converged during times of war and shaped history.
