The Surrender of Dulcigno, the Last of the International Squadron
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving by William Lionel Wyllie that depicts a significant moment in maritime history. The image showcases the surrender of Dulcigno, a strategic port city located in Teodo Bay, during the Balkan conflicts of the late 19th century. In this scene, we witness an array of ships from different nations forming the international squadron. Among them is the imposing French ironclad Friedland and the majestic HMS Monarch representing their respective naval powers. Montenegrin troops are seen boarding these vessels as they prepare to depart after successfully purchasing arms for their defensive forces. The composition also captures local Dalmatians and Albanians observing this historic event with curiosity and perhaps some trepidation. Castel Nuovo stands tall in the background, symbolizing both European royalty and military might. This engraving serves as a testament to diplomacy and cooperation between nations during times of conflict. It highlights how alliances were formed to secure weapons necessary for defending territories in Europe's troubled past. "The Surrender of Dulcigno" not only immortalizes this pivotal moment but also offers viewers glimpses into naval schools, weaponry used by infantry units, and armed forces' combat readiness. It reminds us that historical prints like these provide valuable insights into our shared past while celebrating human resilience amidst political turmoil.
