Framed Print English & French Bombardment of Sweaborg picture print art %%alt5%% %%alt6%%
An interesting and informative print depicting the Bombardment of Sweaborg, the culmination of the Anglo-French fleet's operations in the Baltic in the second season of the Russian (Crimean) War, 1854-56. Sweaborg was a fortress guarding the route between St Petersburg and the Baltic Sea, and Helsinki to the east. On 6th. August 1855, the Anglo-French fleet led by Admirals Richard S. Dundas in the 'Duke of Wellington' and Charles Penaud in the 'Tourville' arrived at Sweaborg and anchored in formation at an appropriate distance from the fortress, where its outdated guns could not reach them. On the morning of 9th. August, they began shelling the fortress. Considerable damage was inflicted on the dockyard and enemy ships and stores. This print depicts the scene of the action, showing explosions and smoke rings from mortar fire. Below the scene in the margins are the names of the ships and admirals involved in the battle.
