An Incident in the Present War - painted by Sovrieul, in the exhibition of pictures of the French Sc Creator: Unknown
An Incident in the Present War - painted by Sovrieul, in the exhibition of pictures of the French School, 1856. In the picture which we engrave this week from the facile and pictorial pencil of Sovrieul, we see how ably a French artist has availed himself of an incident in the [Crimean] war. A fierce and fiery Cossack has dismounted to plunder a wounded Zouave. A female camp follower pushes the Cossack away from the body of her companion, while one of the 42nd Highlanders sends a ball into the heart of the mercenary ruffian. There is great animation in the scene. The costumes are picturesque; the subject has a female interest; and we see England and France united in the field of battle. This picture is known to many of our countrymen by "the Exhibitions of the French School" at Dublin and Leeds'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856
