EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The War in Bhutan" takes us back to a significant event in history. The engraving, created by Edmund Morison Wimperis, depicts the intense battle that unfolded on 15th February between British forces and wild tribes defending the Bala Pass in Bhutan, Asia. As we gaze upon this artwork, our eyes are drawn to the majestic mountains forming a dramatic backdrop for the military camps scattered across the rugged terrain. Tents dotting the landscape suggest an organized yet temporary presence of troops from Western India. It is evident that these brave soldiers have stormed through challenging mountain passes to reach their destination. The image transports us to a time when tensions ran high as British forces clashed with indigenous tribes fiercely protecting their homeland. The war in Bhutan was not only fought against physical adversaries but also against nature's formidable obstacles. Through this engraving, we catch a glimpse of Indian soldiers fearlessly defending their positions amidst untamed wilderness. Their determination and resilience shine through as they confront unknown dangers lurking within these treacherous landscapes. "The War in Bhutan" serves as a powerful reminder of historical conflicts that shaped nations and tested human endurance. This print captures both the beauty of nature and the harsh realities faced by those involved in wartime struggles throughout history.
