EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the Russian squadron under the command of Ushakov passing through the Bosporus in 1799. The image, found in the esteemed collection of State Russian Museum in St. Petersburg, showcases a remarkable blend of fine art and historical documentation. The scene depicts a crucial event during the French Revolutionary Wars and War of the Second Coalition. Painted with watercolour and ink on paper by Mikhail Matveevich Ivanov, this artwork beautifully portrays the might and grandeur of the Russian fleet as it maneuvers through these treacherous waters. Led by Fyodor Ushakov, an influential figure known for his strategic brilliance, this squadron played a pivotal role during this era. Their passage through Bosporus signifies their determination to protect Russia's interests while participating in conflicts abroad. The siege of Corfu is another noteworthy aspect captured within this masterpiece. It symbolizes Ushakov's military prowess as he successfully led his troops against formidable opponents. As we admire this stunning piece, let us appreciate its significance not only as an artistic creation but also as a testament to Russia's rich naval history and its contributions to global events at that time. This print serves as a reminder of our past struggles and triumphs while honoring those who fought bravely for their nation's cause.
