EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the intense and dramatic Attack on Tangi Pass by the First and Second Brigades of the Malakand Field Force on 7 January. The engraving, created by Charles Auguste Loye, showcases a pivotal moment in history, as it depicts the bravery and determination of these military companies. The image showcases the rugged topography of Pakistan's frontier region, with soldiers from various regiments strategically positioned to flank and assault enemy positions. The 10th field battery can be seen captured in this scene, symbolizing a significant victory for the attacking forces. Loye's illustration brings to life the chaos and intensity of battle as troops maneuver through treacherous terrain while covering each other's backs. The French illustrator masterfully captures every detail - from the assaulting soldiers storming sangars (fortified positions) to their adversaries putting up fierce resistance. This historical event is not only a testament to military strategy but also highlights international cooperation between France and Britain during this time period. Loye's work serves as an important reminder of both countries' involvement in conflicts beyond their own borders. Overall, this powerful engraving immortalizes an important chapter in history when brave soldiers fought against all odds at Tangi Pass. It stands as a tribute to their courage and sacrifice while providing viewers with a glimpse into one of many battles that shaped our world today.
