EDITORS COMMENTS
The Afghan War, with General Sir Samuel Browne (engraving) captures a pivotal moment in history during the Second Anglo-Afghan War. This gripping print showcases the military prowess and leadership of General Sir Samuel Browne as he strategizes alongside his staff. The image depicts a mud fort situated amidst the rugged Zukkur Khel hills, built by British forces on 23 November 1878. The circular wall of the fort stands tall, symbolizing their occupation and determination to secure victory. A gate allows access into the barracks where soldiers prepare for battle. In another scene, we see Lalpoora town along the Cabul River, occupied by British troops since 22 November 1878. The fortified walls surround this strategic location while tea is being served to weary soldiers seeking respite from their arduous campaign. General Browne takes center stage in this engraving, showcasing his commanding presence and unwavering resolve. His expertise guides him through treacherous terrains like Ali Musjid and Dakka as he leads his men towards success in Afghanistan. This artwork not only highlights the bravery of those involved but also serves as a historical testament to an era defined by conflict and conquest. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by soldiers who fought valiantly for their nations' interests.
