This engraving titled "Expedition from Sierra Leone to the Gambia, Rifle-Pits at Tambi" takes us back to a significant military expedition in 19th-century West Africa. The image showcases a scene of intense action and strategic warfare as soldiers navigate through the treacherous rifle-pits in Tambi. The print, created by an anonymous English School artist, offers a glimpse into the historical event that unfolded during this expedition. It was originally published in The Illustrated London News on June 11,1892, providing readers with a visual account of the daring mission. In this artwork, we see soldiers armed with rifles and firearms cautiously advancing through the rugged terrain. Their determined expressions reveal their commitment to protecting their comrades and achieving their objectives amidst challenging circumstances. The composition skillfully captures both the danger and bravery exhibited by these troops as they confront unknown adversaries. Each detail is meticulously engraved, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in this momentous journey from Sierra Leone to the Gambia. This remarkable print serves as a testament to human resilience and determination in times of conflict. It reminds us of the sacrifices made by those who fought for exploration and territorial expansion during this era. Bridgeman Images has preserved this piece of history within its private collection so that future generations can appreciate its artistic value while gaining insight into past military expeditions in West Africa.
