EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, titled "The Chitral Expedition" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by the talented artist William Barnes Wollen, this print captures the intensity and drama of the military campaign that took place in Chitral, Pakistan. Intriguingly detailed, the image showcases soldiers engaged in a fierce battle against an unseen enemy. Their determined expressions and strategic positioning reflect their unwavering commitment to victory. The composition exudes tension as smoke billows from muskets and cannons while soldiers valiantly charge forward. Published in The Illustrated London News on May 18th, 1895, this engraving offers a unique insight into the events that unfolded during the expedition. It serves as both a historical record and a testament to human resilience amidst adversity. As we gaze upon this powerful artwork from Fine Art Finder's private collection, we are transported back in time to witness bravery at its finest.
