EDITORS COMMENTS
India, Military Life in the Plains during the Hot Season (engraving) captures a vivid snapshot of military life in 19th century India. The scene depicts a bustling campsite, with soldiers engaged in various activities amidst the scorching heat. In the foreground, we see soldiers enjoying their after-dinner cigars and engaging in a friendly game of polo. The aroma of cooking pots fills the air as preparations for dinner are underway. Some soldiers take advantage of their downtime to catch up on much-needed rest, snoozing under shaded trees. As morning approaches, troops gather for inspection and parade before starting their daily duties. A sahib can be seen overseeing these proceedings while others indulge in a refreshing shower bath or swim at the nearby swimming bath. The image also showcases cultural aspects unique to India, with Indian players participating in traditional ball games alongside their British counterparts. This fusion of cultures is further highlighted by an Indian parlour game being played nearby. This engraving provides us with a glimpse into the camaraderie and resilience displayed by military personnel stationed in India during its hot season. It serves as a testament to their adaptability and dedication despite challenging conditions.
