A scene at the end of the Russo-Turkish War of 1828-1829, showing the victorious Russians marching into Edirne, once Hadrianoplis, on the western limit of European Turkey.

The war ended with the Treaty of Adrianople, which increased Russian dominance around the Black Sea area and Georgia, and, most importantly, forced the Sultan to promise autonomy for Greece.
