EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative print captures the intense moment of the Storming of the Fort at Mooltan (Multan) during the Sikh War of 1848-49. The British East India Company's Bombay European Fusiliers, led by their brave commanding officer, charge towards the Khoonee Boorj, a formidable fortification guarded by the Sikh forces. The determination and courage of the European soldiers are palpable as they advance, weapons at the ready, towards the imposing walls of the fort. The Battle of Mooltan, fought on February 17, 1849, was a significant turning point in the Sikh Wars, a series of conflicts between the Sikh Empire and the British East India Company. The Sikh forces, led by Maharaja Duleep Singh, were no match for the well-equipped and well-trained European soldiers. The storming of the Khoonee Boorj marked the end of Sikh resistance in the region, paving the way for British dominance in the Punjab. The print, produced in the late 19th century, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing valuable insights into the military tactics and strategies employed during the colonial era. The intricate details of the soldiers' uniforms, the fortifications, and the chaotic scene of battle add to the authenticity and historical significance of the image. This print is a poignant reminder of the rich and complex history of India and the impact of colonialism on its people and culture. It serves as a testament to the bravery and resilience of the soldiers on both sides of the conflict and the enduring legacy of the Sikh Wars in shaping the political landscape of the subcontinent.
