EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Types of the Indian Army, 1919" takes us back to a significant era in history. Captured by Richard Simkin, it showcases soldiers serving during the First World War from various regiments within the British Indian Army. The image features brave individuals representing different backgrounds and religions. In this remarkable composition, we see Sepoys from the 2nd Gurkha Rifles with their service kits, embodying the courage and resilience of Nepalese soldiers. Alongside them stands a Sowar Sikh from the 11th Bengal Lancers, exuding strength and determination. The Sepoys of the 15th Ludhiana Sikhs are also depicted here, radiating pride in their distinctive attire. The photograph further includes members of the renowned 26th Punjabis regiment hailing from Pathan descent. Each soldier proudly displays his weaponry - bayonets and guns - symbolizing their commitment to protect their country during times of conflict. Published in W. Stanley Macbean Knight's comprehensive work on "The History of the Great European War: its causes and effects" this image serves as a testament to India's contribution to World War I under British rule.
