The Battle of Borodino, detail 3
The Battle of Borodino (Russian: Бородинская битва, Borodinskaya bitva; French: Bataille de la Moskowa), fought on September 7, 1812, was the largest and bloodiest single-day action of the French invasion of Russia and all Napoleonic Wars, involving more than 250,000 troops and resulting in at least 70,000 casualties. The French Grande Armée under Emperor Napoleon I attacked the Imperial Russian Army of General Mikhail Kutuzov near the village of Borodino, west of the town of Mozhaysk, and eventually captured the main positions on the battlefield, but failed to destroy the Russian army. About a third of Napoleon's soldiers were killed or wounded; Russian losses, while heavier, could be replaced, since large forces of militia were already with the Russian Army and replacement depots which were close by had already been gathering and training troops.
The battle itself ended with the Russian Army out of position. The state of exhaustion of the French forces and lack of information on the Russian Army's condition led Napoleon to remain on the battlefield with his army instead of the forced pursuit that had marked other campaigns that he had conducted in the past. The entirety of Napoleon's Imperial Guard, however, was still available to his disposition and in refusing to implement it he lost his singular chance to destroy the Russian army. The battle at Borodino was a pivotal point in the campaign, as it was the last offensive action fought by Napoleon in Russia. By withdrawing, the Russian army preserved its combat strength, eventually allowing it to force Napoleon out of the country.
Historical reports of the battle differed markedly depending on whether they originated from supporters of the French or Russian sides.

In spring 1918 the panorama The battle of Borodino was rolled up and unprofessionally stored in Moscow causing severe damage to the painting. In 1962 a purposely built museum on Kutuzovsky prospect opened to the public showing the restored panorama . In 1967 a fire destroyed two thirds of the painting. Restorers with the M.B.

Gimry (also spelled Gimri; Russian: Гимры) is a village (selo) in Untsukulsky District of the Republic of Dagestan, Russia. It is located in the mountain where Imam Chamil, the third Imam of Dagestan, was born.
The aul (fortified village) of Gimry enjoyed an almost impregnable position, with only a single road leading up to it, and formed the centre of resistance in the early days of the holy war declared by Ghazi Mullah against the Russians. In October 1832, the Russian army, led by Klugenau and Veliyaminov, attacked Gimry. They discovered a narrow, difficult goat-path, but managed to drag their artillery along it, until they were within range of the aul. The fortifications were destroyed and the Russians succeeded in storming the aul. Imam Shamyl was one of the only two who managed to escape. Ghazi Mullah was discovered dead, in a position of prayer, according to the traditions.

The Siege of Sevastopol was a major siege during the Crimean War, lasting from September 1854 until September 1855.In September 1854, Allied troops (French, Ottoman and British) landed in the Crimea and besieged the city of Sevastopol, home of the Tsar's Black Sea Fleet which threatened the Mediterranean. Before it could be encircled, the Russian field army withdrew.
At the start of October, French and British engineers, moving from their base at Balaclava, began to direct the building of siege lines along the Chersonese uplands to the south of Sevastopol. The troops dug redoubts, gun batteries and trenches.
With the Russian army and its commander Prince Menshikov gone, the defence of Sevastopol was led by Vice Admirals Vladimir Kornilov and Pavel Nakhimov, assisted by Menshikov's chief engineer, Lieutenant Colonel Eduard Totleben. The military forces available to defend the city were 4,500 militia, 2,700 gunners, 4,400 marines, 18,500 naval seamen and 5,000 workmen, totalling just over 35,000 men.
The Russians first began scuttling their ships to protect the harbour, then used their naval cannon as additional artillery and the ships' crews as marines. Those ships deliberately sunk by the end of 1855 included Grand Duke Constantine, City of Paris (both with 120 guns), Brave, Empress Maria, Chesme, Yagondeid (84 guns), Kavarna (60 guns), Konlephy (54 guns), steam frigate Vladimir, steamboats Thunderer, Bessarabia, Danube, Odessa, Elbrose and Krein.
By mid-October 1854, the Allies had some 120 guns ready to fire on Sevastopol; the Russians had about three times as many to return fire and defend against attacking infantry.
On October 17, 1854 (old style date, October 29 new style)[9] the artillery battle began. The Russian artillery first destroyed a French magazine, silencing their guns. British fire then set off the magazine in the Malakoff redoubt, killing Admiral Kornilov, silencing most of the Russian guns there and leaving a gap in the city's defences. However, the British and French withheld their planned infantry attack and a possible early end to the siege was missed.
At the same time, the Allies' ships pounded the Russian defences, taking damage but inflicting little in return before their retirement. The bombardment resumed the following day; but, working overnight, the Russians had repaired the damage caused. This would become the pattern repeated throughout the siege.
During October and November 1854, the battles of Balaclava and Inkerman took place beyond the siege lines. Balaclava provided a morale boost to the Russian and convinced them that the allied lines were thinly spread out and undermanned. But after being defeated at Inkerman, the Russians saw that the Sevastopol siege would not be lifted by a battle in the field and instead moved their troops piece by piece into the city to aid the defenders. Toward the end of November, the weather broke and winter brought a storm which ruined the Allies' camps and supply lines. Men and horses became sick and starved in the poor conditions.
While Totleben extended the fortifications around the Redan, the Flagstaff Bastion and the Malakoff, the British chief engineer John Burgoyne sought to take the Malakoff, which he saw as the key to Sevastopol. Siege works were begun to bring the Allied troops nearer to the Malakoff; in response, Totleben dug rifle pits from where the Russians could snipe at the besiegers. In a foretaste of the trench warfare that became the hallmark of the First World War, these pits became the focus of Allied assaults.
At the start of October, French and British engineers, moving from their base at Balaclava, began to direct the building of siege lines along the Chersonese uplands to the south of Sevastopol. The troops dug redoubts, gun batteries and trenches.
With the Russian army and its commander Prince Menshikov gone, the defence of Sevastopol was led by Vice Admirals Vladimir Kornilov and Pavel Nakhimov, assisted by Menshikov's chief engineer, Lieutenant Colonel Eduard Totleben. The military forces available to defend the city were 4,500 militia, 2,700 gunners, 4,400 marines, 18,500 naval seamen and 5,000 workmen, totalling just over 35,000 men.

The siege of Sevastopol (1854-1855) carried out by the allied troops lasted 349 days. On June 6(18), 1855 the Russians repelled an assault on the fortifications of the Korabelnaya quarter.
Roubaud places the beholder of his panorama-painting on top of the Malakhov hill, where the defenders inflicted a first defeat to the French-English army.
On May 14 (27), 1905 a panorama-rotunda (diameter 36 m. / height 36 m.) was opened to commemorate the event. World War II bestowed another siege upon Sevastopol. German air force (Luftwaffe) provided effective aerial bombardment in support of the ground forces. On July 3, 1942, the remaining Soviet forces surrendered. Nine days earlier on June 25 a German bomb hit the panorama-rotunda and set fire to Roubaud’s painting. Rescue workers cut up parts of the canvas and saved them. The destroyer Tashkent, the last ship to leave, carried these fragments from the sieged Sevastopol. The saved fragments had unfortunately suffered to such an extent that 17 Moscow painters were commissioned to recreate the panorama after Roubaud. Today the original fragments are kept in storage.
On October 16, 1954 the reconstructed panorama- rotunda was reopened to the public to commemorate 100 years of the defense of Sevastopol.
