EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The War in Afghanistan, Charge of the 2nd Punjaub Cavalry in the Action at Shahjui, on 24 October" takes us back to a significant moment during the Second Anglo-Afghan War. Created by Johann Nepomuk Schonberg and published in The Illustrated London News on January 10th, 1880, this print offers a glimpse into the intensity and bravery displayed by soldiers amidst war. In this scene, we witness the powerful charge of the 2nd Punjaub Cavalry as they fearlessly gallop towards their enemy. The horses' muscles ripple with strength and determination while their riders hold their weapons high, ready for battle. The dramatic composition captures both the chaos and heroism that often accompany warfare. Set against a backdrop of rugged Afghan terrain, this engraving transports us to an era where conflicts were fought with valor and honor. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought for their countries during times of turmoil. As we observe this historical artwork from our private collection today, let us reflect upon its significance beyond mere aesthetics. Let it serve as a testament to human resilience and remind us of our duty to learn from history's lessons so that peace may prevail over conflict in our modern world.
