EDITORS COMMENTS
This dramatic process-lithograph, titled "While Horse and Hero Fell," depicts the iconic Charge of the Light Brigade during the Battle of Balaklava in the Crimean War. The image was created 21 years after the event, in 1875, providing a poignant and enduring visual representation of this historic military engagement. The Charge of the Light Brigade was a cavalry charge led by the British Light Brigade against a Russian artillery battery on October 25, 1854. The charge was ordered despite conflicting information and resulted in heavy casualties for the British forces. This lithograph, with its focus on the horses, captures the chaos, intensity, and bravery of the charge. The horses in the image are depicted in mid-gallop, their hooves kicking up clouds of dust as they charge towards the viewer. Their riders, dressed in red uniforms, are shown with determined expressions, some brandishing swords or holding reins with white-knuckled grips. The horses' sweat-drenched coats glisten in the sun, and their eyes are wide with fear and exertion. This powerful image, originally entitled "While Horse and Hero Fell," serves as a testament to the courage and sacrifice of the soldiers and their horses during the Battle of Balaklava. The use of the lithographic process, which allowed for intricate detail and tonal range, adds to the image's dramatic impact and enduring appeal.
