EDITORS COMMENTS
The coloured lithograph titled "Kwettah, 1839 circa" captures a significant moment in history during the Campaigns of the Army of the Indus. Created by Captain Sir Keith A. Jackson and published by W H Allen and Co and T McLean, this print offers a glimpse into the expedition into Afghanistan led by Sir John Keane. The image depicts the plains near Quetta, Baluchistan, where Keane's army arrived after battling their way through the treacherous Bolan Pass. However, mismanagement of supplies resulted in severe food shortages that nearly pushed both troops and camp followers to mutiny. As a result, soldiers had their daily ration cut in half. This scene showcases not only the topography of Kwettah but also provides insights into people's lives and culture during this challenging time. The fortification visible in the background serves as a reminder of both protection and vulnerability. With its vibrant colours and intricate details, this coloured lithograph transports viewers back to 1839 when British forces faced numerous obstacles on their mission deep into Afghanistan. It stands as a testament to the resilience of those involved while shedding light on an often overlooked chapter in military history. Displayed at London's National Army Museum, this print is an invaluable piece that allows us to reflect upon past struggles while appreciating how far we have come since then.
