Show more"Chloroform, telegraphy, steamships and rifles were distinctly modern features of the Crimean War. Covered by a large corps of reporters, illustrators and cameramen, it also became the first media war in history. For the benefit of the ubiquitous artists and correspondents, both the military and the domestic events were carefully staged, giving the Crimean War an aesthetically alluring, even spectacular character." "With their exclusive focus on written sources, historians have consistently overlooked this visual dimension of the Crimean War. Photo-historian Ulrich Keller challenges the traditional literary bias by drawing on a wealth of pictorial materials from scientific diagrams to photographs, press illustration and academic painting. The result is a new and different historical account which emphasizes the careful aesthetic scripting of the war for popular mass consumption at home. Included in this media history of the Crimean War are elements of its still unwritten social history. In the Victorian era, the proliferation of lithography, press illustration, photography and other mass media, gave various social groups a chance to circulate competing views of the war where, previously, monarchs had possessed a near monopoly on the pictorial representation of history. The broad range of visual sources included in the book thus documents not only the war between the British and the Russians in the Crimea but also the battle of representations which raged in the deeply divided society at home."--BOOK JACKET. 1.

Show morePlates depict landscapes and architectural and street views of Constantinople and the Bosphorus. Album of watercolor views taken by the album retracing the journey of Émilien Frossard, the pastor of the Reformed Church and draftsman Pyrenees, who was appointed to organize the Protestant chaplaincy service for the soldiers of the Armée d’Orient, the unit of the French Army unit sent by Napoleon III (r. 1852-1870) to the Crimean War, the military conflict fought from 1853 to 1856, between Russia and the alliance made up of the Ottoman Empire, the United Kingdom, Sardinia, and France. The war was one of the first to be documented extensively in written reports and photographs. The album contains panoramic views of the Mediterranean coasts (Sardinia, Calabria, Stromboli, Athens, the Dardanelles, Sevastopol) from the boat he had embarked on. The album offers beautiful views of Constantinople. Frossard had remained there a few weeks to organize the Protestant chaplaincy service in various French hospitals that he visited (the wounded who could not be evacuated to France remained at the back of these hospitals). During his stay, he took the time to observe the magnificent landscapes and drew sketches and watercolors. There is also a series of more military-inspired watercolors, Pastor lying in an operation theatre, stranded boats in the bay of Balaklava, drawings of fortifications, trenches, big batteries, plans, and camps. This original album of watercolors is assimilated with the book «Letters to the East» published in correspondence of the author’s impressions and descriptions (written in Constantinople and Sebastopol) during the Crimean War in 1855.
