The image transports us back to a tumultuous event that unfolded in Central America, specifically Nicaragua. Intriguingly depicted are various elements that tell the story of this chaotic incident. British and American consulates stand tall amidst billowing smoke, as ships dotting the harbor bear witness to the unfolding drama.
