EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Sketches under Fire, the Bombardment of Giurgevo" takes us back to a significant moment in history during the Russo-Turkish War. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this engraving showcases a scene filled with chaos and destruction. The image depicts the relentless bombardment of Giurgevo, Romania, as military forces engage in intense combat. The artist's skillful sketches capture the raw emotions and harrowing experiences faced by both soldiers and civilians alike. The smoke-filled sky serves as a backdrop for this devastating event, emphasizing the magnitude of the bombings. Through this artwork, we gain insight into the horrors of war and its impact on innocent lives. It reminds us of the resilience shown by those caught in conflict zones throughout history. This particular illustration was featured in The Graphic on July 7th, 1877 - providing viewers at that time with a visual account of these tragic events. As we observe this historical piece from Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection held within a private collection today, it serves as a reminder to appreciate peace and unity within Europe. Let us remember not only those who fought bravely but also strive towards building lasting harmony among nations - ensuring that such scenes remain confined to our past rather than our present or future.
