Created anonymously during the years 1876-1877, this colour lithograph offers a satirical perspective on the tumultuous events surrounding the Russo-Turkish War.

Meanwhile, the Ottoman Empire is portrayed as an opposing force facing imminent defeat. Through its clever use of graphic arts and symbolism, "The Avenger" also alludes to broader themes like Pan-Slavism – a movement advocating unity among Slavic nations – which played a significant role in shaping political alliances during that era. The Balkans region features prominently on this map due to its strategic importance and involvement in the war.
