EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Messengers of War" captures a powerful scene from the "B". Fleet, showcasing the extraordinary role of pigeons in the Royal Navy during times of conflict. Created by Henry Marriott Paget and reproduced as a lithograph, this image is now part of a private collection. Intriguingly, this illustration originally appeared in The Graphic on August 10th, 1901. It depicts a quarter deck scene aboard HMS Revenge where pigeons are being dispatched as messengers to relay crucial information between naval forces and troops on land. This engraving beautifully showcases the close collaboration between the navy and army during wartime. Pigeons were highly valued for their speed and reliability in delivering messages across vast distances when other forms of communication were limited or compromised. As we gaze upon this historical artwork, we are reminded of the vital role played by these feathered heroes in ensuring effective communication within our armed forces. Their ability to traverse treacherous skies with important dispatches undoubtedly contributed to strategic successes throughout history. Let us appreciate not only the skillful artistry behind this litho but also pay tribute to those brave men and women who served tirelessly alongside these remarkable winged messengers. This print serves as an enduring reminder of their dedication and sacrifice for king and country.
