EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the India Medal 1895-1902, awarded to Sepoy Jiwa Singh of the 15th Regiment of Bengal Native Infantry, famously known as The Ludhiana Sikhs. Crafted from metal and preserved at the National Army Museum in London, this historic artifact represents a significant chapter in Indian military history. The medal itself bears four clasps, symbolizing Jiwa Singh's participation in crucial campaigns such as Relief of Chitral 1895, Punjab Frontier 1897-98, Samana 1897, and Tirah 1897-98. These clasps serve as reminders of his bravery and dedication to duty during these challenging times. During this period, the India Medal replaced its predecessor - the India General Service Medal - which had been previously awarded for minor campaigns on the subcontinent since 1854. While silver medals were bestowed upon sepoys like Jiwa Singh, bronze medals were given to Indian bearers and servants who played an essential role behind the scenes. This photograph not only captures a tangible piece of history but also pays homage to countless soldiers like Sepoy Jiwa Singh who served their country with unwavering loyalty. It serves as a reminder of their sacrifices and contributions towards maintaining peace along border frontiers. Displayed by Bridgeman Images through Fine Art Finder platform, this image invites us to delve into our shared past while appreciating both the artistic value and historical significance it holds.
