Russian Steamers Shelling the French Camp, Sebastopol, 1854. Creator: Unknown

Russian Steamers Shelling the French Camp, Sebastopol, 1854. Crimean War. Sketch by Lieutenant Edgar G. Bredin, Royal Artillery, ...taken from a French redoubt, the guns of which are manned by the French navy...Two Russian steamers performed a very daring exploit...one was a steam frigate, and the other the Vladimir...As [the frigate] passed along, a rapid discharge of shells was made against the new English batteries on the right...the Russian frigate became an object of general attention to all the troops on the heights...[she] commenced to throw shot and shell towards the French works, which were thus enfiladed by her guns. The Valorous got up her steam as quickly as possible, and also a French steam line-of-battle ship. As soon as they were able to move down upon the adventurous Russian vessel, they of course compelled her to desist from her fire against the French works...'. From "Illustrated London News", 1854
