EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The War in Egypt" takes us back to a significant moment in history - the Anglo-Egyptian War of 1882. The engraving, created by Johann Nepomuk Schonberg and published in The Illustrated London News, captures the intensity and drama of this military conflict. In the foreground, we see a naval brigade stationed at Port Said, ready for battle. Their faces reflect determination as they stand alongside a powerful Gatling gun, symbolizing their technological advantage. Behind them lies an intricate earthwork fortification that serves as their stronghold against enemy forces. The composition beautifully showcases the collaboration between different branches of armed forces. Royal Navy seamen can be seen working together with marines and troops from the army, highlighting unity amidst chaos. This image is a testament to the bravery and resilience displayed by these men during wartime. As our gaze extends beyond the fortifications, we catch glimpses of warships on the horizon - symbols of power and protection provided by Britain's Royal Navy. These vessels play a crucial role in securing victory for their nation. "The War in Egypt" engraving not only documents historical events but also pays tribute to those who fought valiantly on both sides. It reminds us of the sacrifices made during times of conflict while showcasing humanity's unwavering spirit when faced with adversity.
