EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures a moment of respite during the Tirah Expedition in 1897. Titled "On the March with the Tirah Expedition, a Dip in the Kohat Stream" this print by Henry Marriott Paget showcases soldiers taking a refreshing swim in the Kohat Stream, located in present-day Pakistan. The image transports us back to a time when military campaigns were arduous and demanding. Amidst their march, these brave soldiers found solace and relief as they immersed themselves in the cool waters of the stream. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully depicts each soldier engaged in various activities - some swimming leisurely, others splashing water playfully. This lithograph was originally published as an illustration for The Graphic on November 13th, 1897. It offers viewers a glimpse into history while also highlighting moments of camaraderie and relaxation amidst challenging circumstances. Paget's work serves as a reminder that even during times of conflict and hardship, individuals find ways to seek joy and rejuvenation. This particular scene portrays not only physical refreshment but also mental rejuvenation for these soldiers who undoubtedly faced many trials during their expedition. As we observe this timeless image today, we can appreciate both its artistic merit and historical significance. It stands as a testament to human resilience and our innate ability to find solace amidst chaos – even if it is just for a brief dip in a serene stream far from home.
