EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "An Ambuscade" takes us back to the Second Afghan War in 1878. The image captures a tense moment during an ambush, as local fighters lie in wait for British forces. The creator of this powerful artwork remains unknown, but it was reproduced from a painting made in the late 19th to early 20th century. The photograph is featured in the book "The Life and Deeds of Earl Roberts, Vol. II - To The Abdication of Yakub Khan" by J. Maclaren Cobban, published by T. C. & E. C. Jack in Edinburgh in 1901. Field Marshal Frederick Sleigh Roberts, also known as Lord Roberts or Baron Roberts of Kandahar and Waterford, plays a significant role during this historical period as he led the British Army against Afghan resistance. This monochrome image transports us to a time when tensions ran high between Britain and Afghanistan. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by both sides during armed conflicts throughout history. With its rich historical context and dramatic composition, this print offers viewers an opportunity to reflect on past events while appreciating the bravery displayed by those involved on both sides of the conflict.
