Condition: Fair. Dust Jacket Condition: No Dust Jacket, As Issued. THE CRIMEAN WAR THROUGH A VICTORIAN EYEWITNESS IMAGE A striking hand-colored lithograph documenting the Siege of Sevastopol, the decisive campaign of the Crimean War (1854-1855). The image presents a detailed panoramic view of the Russian naval stronghold, with fortifications, troop positions, naval activity, and battlefield movements carefully delineated. Produced shortly after the conclusion of the siege, this print reflects the 19th-century demand for visual records of contemporary military events. Lithography allowed publishers to circulate detailed representations of major conflicts to a broad audience, while hand coloring enhanced both the documentary value and visual appeal of these historical images. A BATTLE THAT CAPTURED THE VICTORIAN IMAGINATION. The Siege of Sevastopol was the culminating military struggle of the Crimean War. The fortified port served as the base of the Russian Black Sea Fleet and its capture represented a major strategic victory for the allied British, French, and Ottoman forces. The prolonged siege, lasting from October 1854 until September 1855, became one of the defining military events of the Victorian era and was widely commemorated in prints, illustrated publications, and historical accounts. PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION: Hand-colored lithograph on heavy stock. Image area approximately 15.75 x 9 inches; sheet size approximately 20 x 12.5 inches. Folded as issued. Title and descriptive key printed below image. CONDITION: Fair. The print has been professionally repaired on the blank verso along approximately the lower 5 inches of the central fold. Age toning and soiling present, with darker discoloration along several upper folds. Some foxing in the upper third of the sheet. Image remains clear with original hand coloring preserved. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE: the struggle for Russia's Black Sea stronghold The Siege of Sevastopol was one of the most significant military engagements of the 19th century and a turning point in European power politics. Images such as this served both as contemporary news records and as commemorative works, preserving the public memory of a conflict that reshaped military strategy and international relations. LITHOGRAPHER: Published by Henry Bill and lithographed by Thomas S. Sinclair, this large-format historical view reflects the mid-19th-century demand for visual documentation of contemporary military events. Sinclair was among the notable American lithographers of the period, known for his skill in producing detailed topographical and historical views. SUBJECTS: Crimean War, Siege of Sevastopol, Military History, Hand-Colored Lithography, 19th-Century Prints, Historical Illustration, Battle Scenes, European Military History. REFERENCE: The Metropolitan Museum confirms the Sinclair/Henry Bill relationship and identifies Sinclair as a significant American lithographer, including his work with color lithography. Institutional examples at Dartmouth College and Brown University.…

1st appearance. Single sheet, printed recto only, in four colors. Lithograph (not including text): 21-1/4" x 33-3/8". Sheet: 24-1/4" x 35-3/8" The lithographer, Thomas S. Sinclair, was a Scotsmen who learned his craft in Edinburgh, and on coming to the States, was one of the earliest color lithographers to practice in the country. He is known to have published one other Queen hand-colored lithograph of the Refreshment Saloons, ca 1861 (cf. Peters, America on Stone, p. 368). At the time of cataloguing, we have located three other copies of this image: one each in the Otis Archives at the National Museum of Medicine and Health; the Library Company; and the Pennsylvania Historical Society. The Library of Congress owns the second Queen lithograph. The Volunteer Saloons grew into the Sanitary Commission, the precursor of the American Red Cross. At this point, the civilian members were catering to the needs of the healthy new recruits.
