The Campaign in Afghanistan
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving by Charles Edwin Fripp that takes us back to the historical events of 1879. This remarkable print, now part of a private collection, was originally featured in The Graphic on December 20th, providing readers with a visual account of the campaign. The scene depicted showcases the rugged terrain of Pishin Valley in Afghanistan, where military forces are seen ferrying across the Indus River at Attock. The focal point of this artwork lies in the foreground - a group of camels carrying soldiers and supplies through this treacherous landscape. Fripp's attention to detail brings these majestic creatures to life; their strong and sturdy presence symbolizes resilience amidst adversity. Among them stands an impressive Bactrian camel, its double hump distinguishing it from its counterparts. As we gaze upon this engraving, we can almost hear the sing-song calls echoing through the valley as men navigate their way forward. It serves as a poignant reminder of both human determination and nature's role within such campaigns. "The Campaign in Afghanistan" not only captures an important moment in history but also highlights our connection with wildlife animals that have played significant roles throughout time. Through Fripp's artistry and Bridgeman Images' preservation efforts, this print continues to inspire awe and admiration for those who have braved challenging terrains for noble causes.
