EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Fort William in the late 19th century, a time when history was being etched into its very walls. The artist behind this masterpiece is Richard Principal Leitch, who skillfully captures the essence of this iconic fortification located in West Bengal, India. The image transports us to a significant episode of the Anglo-Persian War that took place between 1856 and 1857. It serves as a powerful reminder of Britain's military prowess during that era. As we gaze upon this monochromatic engraving, we are reminded of the rich literary tradition surrounding historical events like these. James Grant's book, British Battles on Land and Sea, Volume III, provides further context for this remarkable artwork. Published by Cassell Petter & Galpin in London, Paris & New York around 1880, it showcases not only the artistic talent but also highlights the importance of documenting such pivotal moments in history. As admirers of heritage and artistry alike, we can appreciate how this print from The Print Collector collection beautifully encapsulates both aspects. Its historical significance combined with Leitch's masterful technique makes it an invaluable piece for any enthusiast seeking to delve into the past through visual storytelling.
