"Remains of Old Genoese Castle above the Harbour of Balaklava" is a photograph taken in 1855 by James Robertson, a Scottish photographer, during the Crimean War. The image showcases a panoramic view of the harbor at Balaklava, Crimea, with the ruins of a Genoese castle perched atop the hills. The photograph's muted tones capture the stark landscape and the historic remnants of the castle, making it a compelling record of the war's impact on the region. This work can be found at The Art Institute of Chicago.
