EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Entrance to the Kojak Pass from Parush" takes us on a visual journey through the rugged landscapes of Afghanistan. Engraved by Charles Haghe and Louis Haghe, this masterpiece was published by Henry Graves in 1842. The artist behind the original sketch, James Atkinson, beautifully captures the essence of this war-torn region. The image showcases an imposing gorge flanked by towering rocky mountains. A lone soldier stands at the entrance to the Kojak Pass, his uniform blending with the earthy tones of his surroundings. His presence symbolizes courage and resilience amidst adversity. Intriguingly, troops armed with guns can be seen in formation further down the pass. Their stoic expressions reveal their determination as they navigate through this treacherous terrain during what is believed to be a significant period of conflict - perhaps even during the Afghan War. As we delve deeper into this composition, our eyes are drawn towards a group of sepoy soldiers marching alongside their fellow comrades. These brave men epitomize loyalty and unity as they traverse these unforgiving lands together. Through its vivid colors and intricate details, this print encapsulates both beauty and danger within Afghanistan's landscape. It serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by those who have fought for peace in this troubled region throughout history.
