EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Our Troops in Afghanistan, a Sowar of the 10th Bengal Lancers, and a Private of the 9th Foot" takes us back to the intense atmosphere of the Second Anglo-Afghan War. Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases two brave soldiers from different regiments. On one side stands a proud Sowar of the renowned 10th Bengal Lancers, mounted on his majestic horse. His vibrant attire and impressive turban reflect his rich cultural heritage as he gazes into the distance with determination and bravery etched onto his face. Opposite him is a stoic Private belonging to the esteemed 9th Foot regiment. Clad in traditional military uniform, he stands tall with unwavering resolve. The weariness visible in his eyes speaks volumes about their shared experiences amidst challenging terrains and hostile environments. The illustration was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on June 12,1880 - shedding light on these valiant troops fighting for their respective causes during this tumultuous period. This historical artwork serves as a poignant reminder of their sacrifices and dedication to duty. Preserved within private collections today, this engraving transports us back to that era where horses were essential companions on treacherous battlefields. It captures not only individual soldiers but also represents all those who served alongside them - united by their commitment to protect and serve their countries amidst adversity.
