EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating lithograph titled "The Indian Frontier Rising, Arrival of General Sir William Lockhart at the Winter Quarters at Barkai, in the Bara Valley, the Baggage coming in from Datoi" transports viewers back to a significant moment in history. Created by Amedee Forestier and published in The Illustrated London News on February 12th, 1898, this artwork offers a glimpse into the Tirah Campaign. In this scene, we witness the arrival of General Sir William Lockhart at his winter quarters in Barkai. The barren landscape of the Bara Valley serves as a backdrop for this grand event. As Lockhart's entourage approaches their destination, baggage-laden camels can be seen making their way from Datoi towards them. This engraving beautifully captures both the military presence and logistical challenges faced during this campaign. It showcases not only Lockhart's leadership but also highlights the importance of supply lines and transportation systems during wartime operations. Displayed within a private collection today, this print allows us to delve into an era when British forces were engaged with frontier conflicts on what is now modern-day Pakistan. With its intricate details and historical significance, Forestier's lithograph continues to captivate art enthusiasts and history buffs alike – reminding us of past struggles and triumphs that have shaped our world today.
