Interior of an Officer's Tent, at Varna, 1854. Creator: Unknown

Interior of an Officer's Tent, at Varna, 1854. British soldiers in Bulgaria during the Crimean War. Sketch by Lieut. E.C. Gordon, Royal Engineers, showing the accommodation afforded by an officer's camp to a few dinner guests....The heat in the day is great; but, perhaps, it does not much exceed the average temperature of a fine sunny day in England about the same time of year. The nights are colder, and heavy dews are frequent. When recall is sounded, and all the bands have ceased playing, the silence which reigns over the camp would be profound; but that the vigorous breathing of the sleepers frequently attain the dimensions of snoring, and that the challenges of the sentry to the stragglers for half-an-hour or so are frequent'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
