EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating snapshot of history, transporting us back to the 19th century during the Russo-Turkish War. This intricate engraving, part of a private collection, offers a detailed glimpse into the tumultuous events that unfolded in Belgrade and its surrounding areas. The image presents an expansive view of the region's topography, showcasing various landmarks and structures. On one side, we see an imposing fortress overlooking the Danube River, symbolizing strength and defense. Adjacent to it stands a magnificent palace and an old monastery, representing power and tradition. As our eyes wander further into this historical panorama, we notice bustling activity on both banks of the river. Barracks and storehouses dotting the landscape indicate military presence while highlighting strategic importance. The Austro-Hungarian frontier looms nearby as a reminder of shifting alliances during this time. Intriguingly, amidst these scenes of war and conflict emerge glimpses of everyday life.

This engraving not only captures significant locations but also serves as a testament to Serbia's resilience throughout European history.
