EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "With the Nile Expedition" takes us back to the intense and dramatic Battle of Firket during the late 19th century. The image showcases a pivotal moment in history, capturing the bravery and determination of those involved. In this scene, we witness Captain Whitton leading a charge against fierce Dervishes alongside his loyal Egyptian lancers. The bay horses gallop fearlessly across the battlefield as they clash with their enemy counterparts. The chaos and intensity of battle are palpable, making it impossible to look away from this gripping depiction. Captain Legges Wing can be seen on one side, commanding his troops with unwavering resolve. Meanwhile, Major Murdoch's brigade of 9th Soudanese soldiers fights valiantly under his leadership on the other flank. Their unity and courage shine through amidst the chaos. The artist masterfully captures every detail in this engraving – from dust kicked up by charging hooves to expressions etched with determination on each soldier's face. It is an extraordinary testament to both historical accuracy and artistic skill. This print serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by these brave men during expeditions along the Nile River. It immortalizes their heroic efforts in defending their cause against formidable opposition. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from our private collection, we are transported back in time to relive a significant chapter in military history that continues to inspire awe today.
