Embarkation of British Troops (Light Division), at Varna, for the Crimea, 1854. Creator: Unknown

Embarkation of British Troops (Light Division), at Varna, for the Crimea, 1854. Scene from the Crimean War, ...from a Sketch by Lieut. E. G. Bredin...of the Light Division on the south side of Varna Bay...This long-threatened enterprise - one of the most gigantic military movements ever undertaken - has, at last, been effected, so far as regards the embarkation of troops and artillery, under the most favourable circumstances. For several days the troops kept marching into the town of Varna, and marching out of it to go on board the vessels. The belt of sand and marsh which runs between the lake and the head of the Bay...was alive with waggons laden with stores, and with carts and horses going to and fro between Varna and these camps; and close to the town...was a fringe of boats, of horse-floats, and of pontoons in incessant motion, while the beach swarmed with thousands of men embarking in the transports'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
