EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases an engraving titled "Gun-Carriages" by the American School in the 19th century. The image, part of a private collection, offers a glimpse into the world of military weaponry and tactics during that era. The engraving was originally created as an illustration for Farrows Military Encyclopedia by Edwards Farrow, who had served as a late assistant instructor of tactics at the prestigious United States Military Academy in West Point, New York. Published in 1885, this piece provides valuable insights into the evolution and design of gun carriages utilized by soldiers. Intriguingly detailed, the print features various types of gun carriages used in warfare. From mounted cannons to revolving arms and infantry service weapons such as Gardner guns and Nordenfelt machine guns, it highlights both offensive and defensive armaments employed on the battlefield. The composition also emphasizes the importance of proper transportation mechanisms like limbers to facilitate mobility during combat situations. Each element depicted serves as a testament to human ingenuity when it comes to developing effective tools for warfare. As we admire this historical artwork captured by Bridgeman Images through Fine Art Finder's lens, we are reminded not only of our fascination with military history but also of humanity's continuous quest for innovation within weaponry and defense systems throughout time.
