EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Mounted Trumpeter from the 34th Prince Albert Victors Own Poona Horse, circa 1908. Created by Major Alfred Crowdy Lovett, this watercolor artwork offers a glimpse into the rich history of India's military forces during that era. The 34th Prince Albert Victors Own Poona Horse was composed of Rathore Rajputs, Kaimkhanis, and Punjabi Musalmans who were recruited to serve in different squadrons. Stationed at Aurangabad in July 1908, these brave soldiers played an integral role in maintaining peace and order within their region. Lovett's exquisite attention to detail captures the essence of this mounted trumpeter as he proudly dons his uniform. The musician's presence adds a touch of elegance amidst the backdrop of strength and discipline portrayed by the entire regiment. This remarkable artwork served as an illustration for Major G F MacMunn's publication titled "Armies of India" in 1911. Preserved at the National Army Museum in London, it stands as a testament to both Lovett's artistic prowess and the historical significance of India's military heritage. As we admire this image today, we are reminded not only of the individual depicted but also of all those who have dedicated their lives to serving their country with honor and valor. This print is a tribute to their sacrifice and unwavering commitment throughout history.
