This print captures the intense naval battle that took place between the Russian and Ottoman fleets on June 22,1788. The artist's attention to detail brings this historic moment to life, showcasing the sheer magnitude of the clash between these two formidable forces. The scene unfolds amidst the vast expanse of the Black Sea, with ships engaged in a fierce struggle for dominance. Waves crash against their hulls as cannons roar and smoke billows into the sky. Each vessel is meticulously depicted, displaying intricate rigging and flags fluttering in the wind. At its center stands Count Suvorov of Rymnik, a prominent figure in Russian military history. His strategic brilliance and unwavering determination are evident as he leads his fleet fearlessly into battle. Alongside him is Catherine II of Russia, known as Catherine the Great, who closely observes her navy's triumph over their Ottoman adversaries. This copper engraving not only serves as a testament to this significant event but also highlights key figures such as Grigori Potemkin, an influential statesman during Catherine's reign. It offers viewers a glimpse into one chapter of Russia's rich history while emphasizing its maritime power during this period. Preserved within a private collection, this remarkable artwork allows us to reflect upon an era defined by conflict and territorial ambitions. Its historical significance resonates even today as we delve deeper into understanding Russo-Ottoman relations and their impact on global affairs during that time.
