EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Plan of the Sortie from Candahar, (Aug. 16,1880)" captures a significant moment in British military history during the late 19th century. The image is taken from the book "British Battles on Land and Sea" by James Grant, published in London, Paris & Melbourne around 1880. In this monochrome print, we see a detailed map depicting the strategic plan for a sortie from Candahar (also known as Kandahar), Afghanistan. It showcases Britain's involvement in the Anglo-Afghan War and their imperialistic ambitions during that time. The black and white composition adds to its historical charm and allows us to focus on the intricate details of this well-thought-out military strategy. The print serves as both an artistic representation and a valuable historical document. James Grant's work has provided us with insight into not only British military tactics but also literature surrounding warfare concepts during the 19th century. This particular piece offers viewers an opportunity to delve into one specific event within this broader context. As we observe this image, it reminds us of how art can be used to preserve important moments in history while simultaneously offering glimpses into different cultures and conflicts that have shaped our world today.
