Légende

The Civil War in Spain: Aguilas, visited with requisitions by the insurgents of Carthagena, 1873. 'The frigates released by the English Admiral have been ordered round to the insurgent port. Reinforcements of troops left Madrid on Saturday for the same destination, and it is confidently hoped that the Separatist rebellion will be speedily stamped out. The sketches we have engraved, showing the scenes that lately took place at Aguilas, on the south coast, thirty-six miles west of Carthagena, were made by an officer of H.M.S. Torch, which was engaged in watching the Intransigente ironclads, on the 16th and 17th September, to prevent their injuring the property or persons of British subjects'. From "Illustrated London News", 1873.
