The Volunteer Easter Manoeuvres
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating engraving that takes us back to the 19th century, showcasing an important military event. This historical artwork captures the essence of a significant moment in time, depicting the Second Volunteer Battalion of Tower Hamlets, Middlesex Rifles in action. The print showcases the battalion's impressive display of strength and coordination as they advance under cover towards their target. The soldiers are armed with double Gardner guns, ready to defend their land against any potential threat. Led by Lord Abinger, they strategize and plan their attack on gunboats stationed along the Solent shore. This image not only highlights the bravery and dedication of these volunteers but also serves as a reminder of the importance placed on national defense during this era. It reflects a time when communities came together to protect their homeland from potential invaders. The detailed illustration transports us back in time, allowing us to witness this historic event firsthand. From Portsmouth to Folkestone and Browndown, news spread about these manoeuvres throughout England. The engraving captures both the intensity and excitement surrounding this military exercise. As we admire this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, let it serve as a testament to those who volunteered their time and efforts for the safety of their nation – an enduring symbol of patriotism and unity.
