The Autumn Manoeuvres - A Glimpse into Military Training at Woolwich Camp
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, titled "The Autumn Manoeuvres, Camp of instruction for Transport Train, Woolwich" offers a fascinating insight into the military training practices of the 19th century. Captured by an English School artist and now part of a private collection, this print showcases the bustling camp set up specifically to instruct transport train personnel. In this scene from September 1871, we witness a flurry of activity as soldiers and horses prepare for their autumn manoeuvres. The picturesque setting in Woolwich provides an idyllic backdrop with its lush autumnal colors. The military camps are meticulously organized, showcasing rows upon rows of tents that stretch across the landscape. Horses play a crucial role in these exercises as they are seen being groomed and harnessed by dedicated soldiers. Their strength and agility will be put to the test during rigorous drills and simulated missions throughout the manoeuvres. This engraving was originally published in The Graphic magazine on September 9th, 1871 - offering readers a glimpse into this significant event. It serves as both an informative record of historical military practices and a testament to the dedication and discipline required within such operations. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection today, it reminds us of how far military training has evolved while honoring the legacy left behind by those who participated in these autumn manoeuvres over a century
