EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Lieutenant Thomas Pattinson at the presence of Karyguam during the Mahratta Wars in 1818. The image, taken around 1912, showcases a pivotal moment in history when the 2nd Bombay Grenadiers fought valiantly at the Battle of Koregaum near Poona. In this intense scene, Lieutenant Pattinson emerges as a fearless leader, leading his men into battle to recapture a lost gun. With his military uniform and headdress symbolizing his allegiance to the British Empire, he stands tall amidst chaos and violence. His raised arms and hand gesture convey both determination and defiance as he faces off against enemy forces. The photograph's vibrant colors bring to life the rich heritage of India, with its diverse arts and culture serving as a backdrop for this dramatic event. It serves as a metaphor for warfare itself - face-to-face combat where swords clash and muskets are fired. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot from the late 19th century, we are reminded of Lieutenant Pattinson's bravery and sacrifice in service to his country. This powerful image is not just an illustration from a book but rather an embodiment of courage that resonates through time. Credit: The Print Collector/Heritage Images
