EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving from the Liszt Collection transports us back to a significant moment in history - The Russian Expedition to Khiva in 1873. Titled "Arrival of the Advanced Corps at the Wells of Seneka after a March of Ninety-Two Versts through a Waterless Desert" this print captures the sheer determination and resilience of these brave soldiers. In this illustrative technique, we witness an intricately engraved image that beautifully depicts the harsh reality faced by the expeditionary force. The Victorian-era art style adds a touch of nostalgia, making it feel like a vintage treasure discovered from another time. The scene showcases weary soldiers arriving at Seneka's wells, their faces etched with exhaustion yet filled with relief as they finally find water after traversing through an arid desert for ninety-two versts. This historic artwork serves as both a testament to human endurance and an insight into military expeditions during that era. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are reminded of the immense challenges faced by those who ventured into unknown territories in pursuit of exploration and conquest. It is not just a simple engraving; it encapsulates an entire chapter in world history, inviting us to reflect on our past and appreciate how far we have come
