EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "With the Russians, Bulgarian Peasantry fleeing from Circassian Irregulars" takes us back to a significant moment in history during the Russo-Turkish War of 1877. Created by Samuel Edmund Waller and now part of a private collection, this print offers a glimpse into the turmoil faced by Bulgarian peasants as they desperately flee from the menacing Circassian irregulars. The scene depicted here is filled with tension and fear. The artist skillfully captures the chaos and urgency of the situation as men, women, and children scramble for safety amidst a war-torn landscape. Their expressions reveal anguish and desperation, their bodies strained with exhaustion as they seek refuge from their pursuers. Waller's work serves as an illustration for The Graphic newspaper on September 15th, 1877. It not only documents historical events but also sheds light on the plight of innocent civilians caught in conflicts beyond their control. This engraving reminds us of the devastating impact war has on ordinary people who are forced to abandon their homes and livelihoods in search of safety. Through this powerful image, we are transported to a time when nations clashed over political ambitions while individuals suffered immensely. It serves as both a reminder of our shared humanity and a call to reflect upon the consequences that wars impose on those most vulnerable among us – like these Bulgarian peasants fleeing for their lives.
