EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "The Chukkur Kothee on the Left Bank of the Goomtee, 1858 circa" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Lieutenant-Colonel David Scott Dodgson and published in September 1860, it is part of a series called "General Views and Special Points of Interest of the City of Lucknow". The scene depicted here showcases the Chaurukhi Kothi, an integral structure within the Chattar Manzil complex. During the final British assault on Lucknow in March 1858, this very spot became a battleground where fierce fighting ensued. On that fateful day of March 8th, Sir James Outram's soldiers valiantly stormed this fortification at bayonet point. Through intricate detail and expert craftsmanship, Dodgson brings this historical event to life. The lithograph captures both the grandeur and devastation surrounding the Chukkur Kothee. Its architectural beauty stands juxtaposed against signs of war-torn destruction. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder courtesy of Bridgeman Images, we are transported back to an era defined by siege warfare and heroic battles fought for control over strategic locations like Lucknow. It serves as a poignant reminder not only of our shared past but also honors those who sacrificed their lives during these tumultuous times.
