                  <text>The talents of Carlo Bossoli (1815-1884), a Swiss-born Italian artist who spent his youth in Odessa, attracted the attention of no less a figure than Count Mikhail Vorontsov, governor-general of New Russia and Bessarabia. Vorontsov commissed a series of views of Odessa, which Bossoli executed with success. Between 1840 and 1842 Bossoli lived on Vorontsov's estate at Alupka, using it as a base for exploring the peninsula in its entirety. He produced the album from which these watercolors are taken just as the Crimean War was breaking out in 1853. The timing was auspicious and Bossoli's publisher (Day &amp;amp; Son, lithographers to the Queen) was quite pleased with &lt;a title="the view from London" href="/items/show/615" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;the resulting buzz&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;Bossoli's album is a rarity: no more than 500 copies were printed in 1856. The album consisted of 52 watercolors and pastels. The images shown here were digitized and graciously made available by the &lt;strong&gt;Gordon Library at Worcester Polytechnic Institute&lt;/strong&gt;.

                  <text>The talents of Carlo Bossoli (1815-1884), a Swiss-born Italian artist who spent his youth in Odessa, attracted the attention of no less a figure than Count Mikhail Vorontsov, governor-general of New Russia and Bessarabia.

Between 1840 and 1842 Bossoli lived on Vorontsov's estate at Alupka, using it as a base for exploring the peninsula in its entirety. He produced the album from which these watercolors are taken just as the Crimean War was breaking out in 1853.

                  <text>The talents of Carlo Bossoli (1815-1884), a Swiss-born Italian artist who spent his youth in Odessa, attracted the attention of no less a figure than Count Mikhail Vorontsov, governor-general of New Russia and Bessarabia. Vorontsov commissed a series of views of Odessa, which Bossoli executed with success. Between 1840 and 1842 Bossoli lived on Vorontsov's estate at Alupka, using it as a base for exploring the peninsula in its entirety. He produced the album from which these watercolors are taken just as the Crimean War was breaking out in 1853. The timing was auspicious and Bossoli's publisher (Day &amp;amp; Son, lithographers to the Queen) was quite pleased with &lt;a title="the view from London" href="/items/show/615" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;the resulting buzz&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;Bossoli's album is a rarity: no more than 500 copies were printed in 1856.

The images shown here were digitized and graciously made available by the &lt;strong&gt;Gordon Library at Worcester Polytechnic Institute&lt;/strong&gt;.

The publication was made possible by 1) the Republican Committee for the Protection of Cultural Heritage, Council of Ministers of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, 2) the Ministry of Culture of&amp;nbsp;the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, and 3) the vice-chairman of the Council of Ministers of&amp;nbsp;the Autonomous Republic of Crimea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The editors of the 2003 volume had high hopes that Crimea "should become an integral historical-cultural and natural preserve and prosper in the unity of nations living on its land." From their perspective, Bossoli's paintings "show the Crimea as an infinitely beautiful, well-developed, and happy land..."&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See for yourself.&lt;hr /&gt;</text>

                  <text>The talents of Carlo Bossoli (1815-1884), a Swiss-born Italian artist who spent his youth in Odessa, attracted the attention of no less a figure than Count Mikhail Vorontsov, governor-general of New Russia and Bessarabia. Vorontsov commissed a series of views of Odessa, which Bossoli executed with success. Between 1840 and 1842 Bossoli lived on Vorontsov's estate at Alupka, using it as a base for exploring the peninsula in its entirety. He produced the album from which these watercolors are taken just as the Crimean War was breaking out in 1853. The timing was auspicious and Bossoli's publisher (Day &amp;amp; Son, lithographers to the Queen) was quite pleased with &lt;a title="the view from London" href="/items/show/615" target="_blank" rel="noopener"&gt;the resulting buzz&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span&gt;Bossoli's album is a rarity: no more than 500 copies were printed in 1856. The album consisted of 52 watercolors and pastels. The images shown here were digitized and graciously made available by the &lt;strong&gt;Gordon Library at Worcester Polytechnic Institute&lt;/strong&gt;. They are available here for educational, non-commercial purposes only.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Interestingly enough, a bilingual edition (Russian and English) was &lt;strong&gt;reproduced in Kiev in 2003&lt;/strong&gt;. The publication was made possible by 1) the Republican Committee for the Protection of Cultural Heritage, Council of Ministers of the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, 2) the Ministry of Culture of&amp;nbsp;the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, and 3) the vice-chairman of the Council of Ministers of&amp;nbsp;the Autonomous Republic of Crimea.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The editors of the 2003 volume had high hopes that Crimea "should become an integral historical-cultural and natural preserve and prosper in the unity of nations living on its land." From their perspective, Bossoli's paintings "show the Crimea as an infinitely beautiful, well-developed, and happy land..."&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See for yourself.&lt;hr /&gt;</text>
