EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Afghan War, 3rd Goorkhas leaving Bareilly, Gunners cheering the Goorkhas at Meerut" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an English School artist from the 19th century, this print captures the essence of camaraderie and patriotism during times of conflict. The scene depicts the departure of the brave 3rd Goorkha regiment from Bareilly as they set off for their duty in the treacherous Afghan War. The gunners stationed at Meerut can be seen enthusiastically cheering on their fellow soldiers, showcasing a powerful display of support and unity. This illustration was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on November 30th, 1878. It serves as a testament to both British military involvement in Afghanistan and the enduring spirit of Indian soldiers who fought alongside them. Beyond its historical significance, this artwork also offers glimpses into Indian culture and Asian identity. The proud presence of these Gurkha warriors symbolizes not only their bravery but also represents India's rich heritage and diverse population. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded of the sacrifices made by those who served in conflicts throughout history. Their unwavering dedication deserves our admiration and respect.
