EDITORS COMMENTS
The Army Manoeuvres (litho) captures the intense military exercises of the late 19th century, as depicted by Frank Dadd. This lithograph, now part of a private collection, showcases a pivotal moment during an army manoeuvre. In this scene, we witness a well-coordinated battery in action. The soldiers are diligently following orders from their commanding officers and aiming their artillery at an unseen enemy. Umpires closely observe every move to ensure accuracy and adherence to protocol. The composition is filled with various elements that contribute to the authenticity of the print. From cavalry squadrons galloping across the field to telegraph battalions laying cable lines for communication, each unit plays its crucial role in achieving victory. Notably, Corps of Royal Engineers can be seen constructing defensive screens while infantry divisions march alongside wagons carrying essential supplies. The attention to detail is remarkable; even the skeleton enemy has been included as a target for practice purposes. Dadd's engraving skillfully captures both the grand scale and intricate workings of these military operations. It serves as a testament to his talent and provides us with valuable insight into historical army manoeuvres. This lithograph invites viewers on a journey back in time when warfare strategies were meticulously planned and executed with precision.
