EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Moving supplies across the ice" takes us back in time to the harsh winter of 1855-56 during a French naval expedition in Crimea. Engraved by Eugene Ciceri and published around 1860, this print showcases the incredible determination and resilience of sailors as they navigate their way through frozen waters. In this scene, we witness a group of navy soldiers working tirelessly to transport much-needed supplies across the icy terrain. The ship looms in the background, its masts standing tall against a misty backdrop. As thick fog engulfs them, these brave men press on undeterred, their figures barely visible amidst the freezing haze. The artist's attention to detail is remarkable; every stroke captures not only the physical challenges faced by these sailors but also conveys an atmosphere of anticipation and uncertainty. The frozen landscape seems almost otherworldly as it contrasts with their warm breaths floating in front of them. "Moving supplies across the ice" serves as both a historical record and a testament to human perseverance. It reminds us that even in extreme conditions, individuals can come together to overcome obstacles for a greater cause. This print from Nos Souvenirs de Kil-Bouroun pendant L'Hiver passe dans Le Liman du Dnieper transports us into an era long gone but leaves behind an enduring admiration for those who braved such treacherous circumstances.
