EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a significant moment in history - the death of Colonel John Finnis at Meerut during the Indian Mutiny. The image, captured by Ken Welsh, transports us to a scene filled with tension and despair. Colonel Finnis, a brave British soldier, stands as an emblem of the conflict that engulfed India during this period of rebellion and independence. As we gaze upon this engraving from "The History of the Indian Mutiny" published in 1858, we are reminded of the immense sacrifices made by those who fought for their beliefs. The horizontal composition allows us to fully immerse ourselves in this historical tableau. We can almost feel the weight of war hanging heavy in the air as Colonel Finnis becomes tragically entangled within its grasp. His untimely demise marks him as not only a casualty but also as a symbol of resilience against insurmountable odds. Through his lens, Ken Welsh captures both the bravery and tragedy that defined this tumultuous era. This print serves as a poignant reminder of how conflicts shape nations and individuals alike. It invites us to reflect on our own histories while honoring those who have paid the ultimate price for freedom.
