Seller's Description
Original 15 3/4 inch x 23 1/2 inch Engraving titled THE REALITY OF WAR - COMRADES OF THE SAME CORPS.
Russian soldiers going over the old ground of the unsuccessful assaults on Plevna
The Siege of Plevna was a major battle of the Russo-Turkish War of 1877–1878, fought by the joint army of Russia and Romania against the Ottoman Empire. The Ottoman defense held up the main Russian advance southwards into Bulgaria for five months, encouraging other great powers actively to support the Ottoman cause.

It continued to be published weekly under this title until 23 April 1932 and then changed title to The National Graphic between 28 April and 14 July 1932; it then ceased publication, after 3,266 issues.
