EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Palaces held by Generals Outrams and Havelocks Troops, 1858 circa" offers a glimpse into the tumultuous period of the Indian Mutiny. Created by Lieutenant-Colonel David Scott Dodgson and reproduced by R M Bryson, this print showcases the fortified palaces in Lucknow that were fiercely contested during the rebellion. The image transports us to March 1858 when British troops launched their final assault on Lucknow. The palaces, once opulent symbols of Nawabi power, had been transformed into formidable strongholds by rebel forces. It took relentless fighting for General Outram and General Havelock's troops to capture these strategic positions. In the distance stands Chattar Manzil, also known as Umbrella Palace—a magnificent structure initiated under Nawab Ghazi Uddin Haider but completed after his death by his successor, Nawab Nasir Uddin Haider. Its grandeur is juxtaposed against the scars of battle evident throughout the city. This lithograph not only captures a pivotal moment in history but also serves as a testament to human resilience amidst conflict. It reminds us of both the architectural splendor that once graced Lucknow and the sacrifices made during this turbulent chapter in India's past. Displayed at London's National Army Museum, this artwork allows viewers to reflect upon an era marked by struggle and triumph while appreciating Dodgson's skillful rendering of historical events.
