1875 Hero New Zealand Pets Regimental
EDITORS COMMENTS
This 19th-century engraving titled "Regimental Pets: Pokeno, Dog of the 50th Regiment, a New Zealand Hero, 1875" showcases the remarkable bond between man and his loyal companion. The image transports us back to a bygone era when pets held a special place within military regiments. Pokeno, an extraordinary dog belonging to the esteemed 50th Regiment in New Zealand, emerges as the true hero of this tale. With his unwavering loyalty and bravery, he became an emblematic figure among soldiers during that time. This engraved image beautifully captures Pokeno's noble stature and commanding presence. The illustrative technique employed in this historic artwork reflects the artistic mastery of Victorian times. Its retro-styled aesthetic evokes nostalgia for a simpler era while highlighting the rich cultural heritage associated with these regimental pets. As we delve into this vintage print from Arkheia's collection, we are reminded of how animals have played significant roles throughout history. From providing companionship on long journeys to offering solace amidst turmoil, they have been steadfast allies to humankind. This nineteenth-century engraving not only serves as a testament to Pokeno's heroic deeds but also pays homage to all those unsung animal heroes who have stood alongside their human counterparts through thick and thin. It is a poignant reminder that love knows no boundaries - even across species - and that our four-legged friends can leave an indelible mark on our hearts forever.
