EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1893 showcases the bravery and resilience of Circassian women during the Russian invasion of 1839. Standing outdoors, these courageous females are depicted in a moment of intense fighting, defending their homeland against the encroaching Russian forces. The image captures their determination as they kneel with weapons in hand, ready to protect their country at any cost. The monochrome portrait exudes a sense of strength and defiance, emphasizing the unwavering spirit of these brave women who refused to surrender to foreign invaders. Their piercing gaze reflects both fearlessness and determination as they confront the enemy head-on. Titled "Fighting in Defence of her Home" this engraving is part of Frederick Warne and Co. 's publication, The Pictorial Treasury of Famous Men and Famous Deeds. It serves as a powerful reminder of the struggles faced by Circassia during this turbulent period in history. As we observe this historical snapshot captured almost two centuries ago, it is impossible not to be moved by the indomitable spirit displayed by these Circassian women. Their courage echoes through time, reminding us that even in times of conflict, ordinary individuals can rise up to defend what they hold dear – their land, their people, and their freedom.
