EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the storming of Gaudi Mullah Sahibdad during the Second Anglo-Afghan War in 1901. The image showcases the combined forces of the 92nd Highlanders and 2nd Gurkhas, under the command of Lord Roberts, as they valiantly attack an Afghan army to relieve the siege of Kandahar. The intensity of battle is palpable as British Empire troops fiercely engage with their adversaries amidst a backdrop of rugged Afghan terrain. The buildings surrounding them stand witness to this historic clash, serving as a reminder that war knows no boundaries. Renowned artist Caton Woodville masterfully depicts this scene through his intricate engraving, capturing every detail with precision. His work transports us back to a time when bravery and sacrifice were paramount on both sides. Lord Frederick Sleigh Roberts emerges as a central figure in this composition - his strategic leadership guiding his troops towards victory. As one gazes upon this photograph, it becomes evident that these soldiers fought not only for their country but also for each other; united by their shared purpose and unwavering determination. This remarkable piece from The Illustrated London News serves as a testament to the courage displayed by those who served during this tumultuous period in Afghanistan's history. It stands as an enduring symbol of resilience and camaraderie amidst conflict, reminding us all of the sacrifices made by our ancestors for future generations' freedom and peace.
