The Storming of Seringapatam, 4th May 1799 - A Glimpse into the Final Confrontation
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a pivotal moment in history - the storming of Seringapatam on the fateful day of May 4th, 1799. The engraving, created by an anonymous English artist from the 18th century, transports us back to the Fourth Anglo-Mysore War between the British East India Company and the Kingdom of Mysore. The image depicts a chaotic scene as soldiers from both sides clash in a fierce battle for dominance. With determination etched on their faces, British troops alongside their ally, Nizam of Hyderabad, breach the fortress walls and storm towards victory. This decisive triumph marked not only an imperialistic conquest but also signaled an end to Tipu Sultan's reign as ruler of Mysore. As we delve deeper into this historical event through this striking artwork, we witness how power dynamics shifted during colonial times. The East India Company's relentless pursuit for control over Indian territories is evident in every stroke of this engraving. With Lord Mornington (later known as Wellington) leading his forces against Tipu Sultan's resistance, it becomes clear that this confrontation was more than just a fight; it was a clash between empires vying for supremacy. Through Bridgeman Images' preservation and presentation of this significant piece from Fine Art Finder's private collection, viewers are transported to a time when conflict
