EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the diversity and strength of the soldiers serving in various regiments during the British Raj era in India. Taken from Major G. F. MacMunn's book "Armies of India" published in 1911, this illustration offers a glimpse into the rich history of the Indian Army. The image features a group portrait of soldiers from different regiments, each donning their distinctive military uniforms with pride. Standing tall and resolute, these brave men represent the multicultural fabric that made up the British Empire's armed forces. From left to right, we see a Havildar from the 31st Punjabis regiment, followed by soldiers from the 37th Dogras, 24th Punjabis (another Havildar), 41st Dogras, and finally, members of the 28th Dogras regiment. Their presence evokes a sense of honor and dedication to duty. The sepoy's turbans add an element of cultural identity to this powerful composition while their rifles symbolize both protection and authority. Each soldier exudes distinction as they stand together for this timeless portrait. Preserved at London's National Army Museum since its creation by Alfred Crowdy Lovett in 1908, this painting serves as a testament to not only individual bravery but also collective unity within diverse communities serving under one flag. As we reflect on this historical moment captured through artistry and skillful brushwork, we are reminded of those who served selflessly in defense
