EDITORS COMMENTS
This historic print depicts the momentous event of the Turkish forces evacuating Belgrade in 1867, marking the end of the Ottoman occupation of the city. The image captures the sense of relief and jubilation among the Serbian population as they welcome their liberators, the Austro-Hungarian and Russian troops. Belgrade, which had been the capital of the Ottoman province of Serbia since 1521, was now set to become the capital of the newly independent Serbian state. The Turkish forces had been in control of Belgrade for over three centuries, but their rule had grown increasingly oppressive in the 19th century. The Serbian nationalist movement, fueled by a desire for independence and self-determination, had been gaining momentum since the early 1800s. The Serbian uprising against the Turks, led by Karađorđe Petrović, had begun in 1804, and the Serbian army, with the support of the European powers, had managed to secure several victories against the Ottoman forces. The Treaty of Andrinople, signed in 1829, recognized the autonomy of Serbia within the Ottoman Empire. However, the Turks continued to interfere in Serbian affairs, leading to renewed conflict. The final blow came in 1867 when the Serbian army, with the support of the Austro-Hungarian and Russian forces, managed to drive the Turks out of Belgrade. The liberation of Belgrade was a significant milestone in the history of Serbia and eventually Yugoslavia. The city would go on to serve as the capital of the Serbian Principality, the Kingdom of Serbia, and later the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. The events of 1867 marked the beginning of the end of the Ottoman Empire's influence in Europe and the emergence of modern-day Serbia as a sovereign nation.
