Careening Bay, Sebastopol - sketched by J. A. Crowe, 1856. Little more than twelve months ago the docks and harbours of Sebastopol Bay...were crowded with that powerful Russian fleet which was destined to take possession of Constantinople on the first favourable opportunity. And now...the only vestige of the Russian vessels...is the fragment of a dredging machine. The proud fleet which Admiral Nachimoff commanded...lies at the bottom of the bay, while the chief portion of the sailors who manned it have been killed or disabled in their vain attempt to hold possession of Sebastopol. Should the Allies shift the campaign from the neighbourhood of the ruined city to some point further north, as is highly probable, Careening Bay may once more become as lonely a spot as it was before the Russian invasion of the Crimea'. From "Illustrated London News", 1856
