The image showcases a significant moment in history as Indian troops prepare to embark on their journey to Burma. The bustling dock comes alive with activity as soldiers clad in traditional attire and mounted on horses board the steamship Nerbudda. The scene is filled with anticipation and a sense of duty, as these brave men leave behind their homeland to serve their country overseas. The composition beautifully captures the maritime atmosphere, with ships dotting the bay waters and pontoons lining the harbor walls.
