EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the various types of Turkish soldiery during the War in the East. The engraving, created in 1876, takes us back to a significant period in history and offers a glimpse into the diverse military forces present at that time. In this image, we can see several distinct groups of soldiers. First is the I. a'Rayah, representing an infantryman or foot soldier. Their attire and weaponry reflect their role on the battlefield. Next are the Soldiers of the Military Train (2. a'Soldiers), responsible for logistics and transportation within the army. Accompanying them is an Escort (3. a), ensuring safe passage for important personnel or supplies. A group Conveying Tents (4) follows closely behind, highlighting how crucial it was to establish temporary shelters during campaigns. The Officers Servant (5) stands out among his comrades as he attends to their needs and provides support behind-the-scenes. The Gendarmerie or Zaptichs (6) represent a specialized force responsible for maintaining law and order within military ranks. Lastly, we have an Almaun of a Battalion (7), symbolizing leadership within a specific unit. This engraving beautifully captures these different facets of Turkish soldiery from over a century ago. As we admire this vintage artwork with its retro-styled charm, it serves as both historic documentation and illustrative technique showcasing 19th-century culture and arts. The Liszt Collection has preserved this engraved image for us
