EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in history - the Cavalry Sports by the Eighth (Kings Royal Irish) Hussars before the Duke and Duchess of Connaught at Meerut, India. The engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases the grandeur and elegance of this military spectacle. In this image, we see a display of shooting skills combined with equestrian prowess. The soldiers from the Eighth Hussars are seen mounted on their majestic horses, showcasing their agility and precision as they engage in various cavalry sports. The Duke and Duchess of Connaught stand proudly as spectators to this impressive demonstration of skill. The setting is Meerut, India - a place rich in Indian culture and history. This engraving not only highlights the military strength of British forces but also serves as a testament to the harmonious blend between Indian and British cultures during that time. The attention to detail in this artwork is remarkable; every aspect has been meticulously captured by the artist's hand.
