EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Ko-i-Staun Foot Soldiery in Summer Costume, Actively Employed among the Rocks" takes us on a visual journey to Afghanistan in the mid-19th century. The image showcases the soldiers of Ko-i-Staun, dressed in their distinctive summer costumes, as they navigate through rocky terrain. The soldiers are depicted with an air of purpose and determination, their slippers providing them with agility and ease of movement amidst the challenging landscape. Each soldier carries a gun, symbolizing their readiness for any potential threats that may arise. The lithograph was created by James Rattray after Robert Carrick's original engraving from 1848. It is part of a larger collection called "Scenery, Inhabitants and Costumes of Afghanistan" which offers a fascinating glimpse into the lives and traditions of Afghan people during this era. This particular photograph captures not only the military aspect but also provides insight into Afghan culture at that time. The soldiers' attire reflects traditional clothing worn during warmer months, showcasing intricate details and patterns unique to their region. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the rich heritage and resilience exhibited by these brave foot soldiery actively engaged within nature's formidable embrace.
