EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving, titled "With the Russians at Adrianople, trying on the Enemy's Caps in the Bazaar" we are transported back to a significant moment during the Russo-Turkish War. The image depicts a bustling scene in the heart of Adrianople, Turkey, where Russian soldiers immerse themselves in local culture. Amidst vibrant street scenes and Turkish architecture, these curious soldiers engage with their surroundings by playfully trying on traditional enemy caps found within the bazaar. Their actions serve as a reminder that even amidst conflict, there can be moments of camaraderie and curiosity between opposing forces. The artist behind this masterpiece is Harry Hamilton Johnston (1858-1927), whose attention to detail brings every element of this composition to life. Through his skilled hand and keen eye for authenticity, he transports us directly into Central Turkey during this tumultuous period. This print not only captures an important historical event but also offers us a glimpse into Turkish culture and European perspectives of the Middle East during that time. It serves as a testament to how art can bridge cultural divides and provide insight into different worlds. As we gaze upon this engraving from our private collection today, it reminds us of both the complexities of war and our shared humanity across borders.
