Gun carriages: A glimpse into the history of warfare and transportation. In this captivating image, Macaw B railway wagon No. 84350 can be seen loaded with gun carriages at Swindon Works around 1915. The engraving titled 'Gun-Carriages' takes us back to an era where these essential military equipment played a crucial role in conflicts like the Civil War in America, as depicted in another engraving showcasing Baggage-Waggons and Gun-Carriages of the Army of the Potomac on the Move. Commemorating the end of war, Anzacs bear witness to a grand review of empire forces, while evocative black-and-white photographs capture evacuations during Gallipoli. Delving deeper into history, we explore a mosque inside Asophoo Dowlahs Emambara in Lucknow and marvel at Belgian Army dogs pulling machine guns through a vibrant lithograph. Detailed engravings reveal plans and sections of turrets and guns aboard HMS Thunderer, highlighting their intricate design for naval battles. Tragically, we also pay respects to fallen heroes through a poignant colour litho depicting the funeral procession for victims of the sinking French Navy submarine Pluviose. Lastly, an oil painting transports us to 1898 when Royal Horse Artillery and Lancers eagerly await orders before embarking on their mission. Lieutenant Bayard Wilkeson's bravery during the Battle of Gettysburg is immortalized through an engraved portrait capturing his heroic spirit amidst chaos. From historic bombardments like that witnessed in Copenhagen to moments frozen in time across continents - these glimpses into gun carriages remind us both of our past struggles and technological advancements.
