Russische Armee 1828 [caption title] Publication: Augsburg. Josef Steingriebel, circa 1828 Description: Hand coloured engraving, 38 x 54.2cm; 49.8 x 63.5 cm (sheet) four neatly sealed edge tears affecting the foot of the caption and upper sky, the margins rather dusty and paper adhesions to the verso, the image in very good condition. Impressive engraving presenting a contemporary illustration of one of the notable events of the Russo-Turkish War 1828-1829: the siege of Varna by the Russian army in 1828, one of the three key Ottoman citadels in modern Bulgaria. Russian troops first attempted an approach to Varna on 28 June where they encountered stiff opposition from Turkish troops, leading to the siege being postponed. Rare contemporary depiction.
