"Disembarkation of the Expedition to Kertch at Kamish Bournou" is a significant historical lithograph by William Simpson, forming part of the illustrative series titled "The Seat of War in the East." Published in 1856 by Paul and Dominic Colnaghi and Co., this work is among the visual documents that capture the events of the Crimean War (1853-1856), a pivotal conflict in 19th-century European history. William Simpson, an eminent British war artist and correspondent, was renowned for his ability to depict military scenes with both accuracy and emotive power, bringing the realities of war closer to the British public.

This particular plate illustrates the moment of the British-led allied forces' landing at Kamish Bournou, a strategic operation aimed at capturing the city of Kertch on the eastern part of the Crimean peninsula. This maneuver was part of a broader campaign to disrupt Russian supply lines and weaken their military presence in the region. Simpson's work not only captures the logistical effort of such military operations but also reflects the broader geopolitical stakes of the Crimean War, highlighting the complex interplay of empire, military strategy, and international diplomacy.

The lithograph stands as a testament to the historical significance of the Crimean War and its impact on the development of war reporting and military art. Through Simpson's keen observational skills and artistic prowess, "Disembarkation of the Expedition to Kertch at Kamish Bournou" offers a vivid glimpse into the challenges and realities faced by soldiers and commanders alike. It remains an important work for historians, art enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the visual culture of warfare and its documentation in the 19th century.
