EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts Kavarna Bay and the Town of Baltschik on the Black Sea during the Crimean War in 1854. The scene is reminiscent of a strategic moment in history as the Allied fleets, consisting of British and French naval forces, gathered here for a rendezvous before embarking on their expedition against the Russian forces in the Crimea. The Town of Baltschik, located on the Bulgarian coast, holds historical significance as the place where Marshal de St. Arnaud, a French military leader, arrived from Varna aboard the Berthollet. Upon his arrival, he immediately transferred to the Ville de Paris, and the sight of the bay was described as breathtakingly beautiful in the evening. The description from the "Illustrated London News" of the time paints a vivid picture of the scene. It was a Friday, and the Mussulmans, an Islamic community, were observing a holy day. Their squadron was illuminated with lights placed atop every mast, creating a magnificent spectacle against the backdrop of the moonlit white cliffs that line the coast. The ships fired salutes, adding to the festive atmosphere as everyone reveled in the momentousness of their participation in this important enterprise. This print, from the collection of The Print Collector, offers a glimpse into the past, capturing the essence of the geographical features, naval warfare, and diplomatic alliances that shaped the 19th century. The image of Kavarna Bay and the Town of Baltschik serves as a testament to the rich history of the Black Sea and the pivotal role it played in the Crimean War.
