EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Clive himself sprang to a gun" we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment in history. The artist, Arthur David McCormick, skillfully captures the intensity and drama of the scene through his vibrant color lithography. The image depicts an intense battle during the Romance of Empire: India era, specifically the year 1751 AD. Clive, undoubtedly a heroic figure, is shown springing into action as he takes hold of a powerful gun amidst a bombardment. Dressed in elaborate costumes that reflect both British and Indian influences, soldiers from both sides engage fiercely on the battlefield. This artwork not only showcases the clash between two great empires - British and French - but also highlights the significance of India within this historical context. The cannon firing in the background adds to the chaos and urgency felt throughout this critical moment. McCormick's attention to detail brings life to each soldier depicted; their uniforms meticulously rendered with accuracy. This print serves as a testament to Clive's bravery and leadership during this particular conflict at Arcot. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from our private collection, we are reminded of how art can transport us through time and allow us glimpses into significant events that have shaped our world today.
