EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historical artifact that tells a story of war and conquest. The image showcases a tray, discovered in the tent of Sirdar Ayub on September 1st, 1880, after the Battle of Kandahar. The tray is beautifully adorned with intricate floral designs, reflecting the rich artistic heritage of India. The significance of this tray lies not only in its aesthetic appeal but also in its connection to a pivotal moment in history. As Major-General Frederick Roberts' troops arrived at Ayub Khan's camp, they found it abandoned. It was during this time that Lieutenant John Scott Napier from the 92nd (Gordon Highlanders) Regiment of Foot acquired this very tray. This photograph serves as a reminder of the looting and souvenirs often associated with warfare. In times when chaos reigns supreme, individuals seek mementos to commemorate their triumphs or simply as keepsakes from foreign lands. Beyond its historical context, this image offers us an opportunity to reflect on society and culture during that era. It provides insight into both Indian craftsmanship and British military practices prevalent at the time. Preserved by the National Army Museum in London, this print allows us to appreciate not just the physical beauty of an object but also its ability to transport us back through time – reminding us that even amidst conflict and destruction, artistry endures.
