EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph titled "The Indian Frontier Rising, the Taking of the Sempagha Pass, the 1st Queens in a Hot Corner" by Henry Charles Seppings Wright depicts a dramatic scene from India's military history. The artwork, created in 1897 for The Illustrated London News, showcases the bravery and resilience of soldiers during a critical moment on the Indian frontier. In this intense portrayal, we witness the 1st Queens regiment valiantly defending their position in what is described as a "hot corner". The topography of Sempagha Pass adds to the challenging nature of this battle. With its rugged terrain and strategic importance, this pass served as a gateway between India and Pakistan (then part of British India). Wright's intricate engraving captures every detail with remarkable precision. From the determined expressions on each soldier's face to their meticulously crafted uniforms, no aspect is overlooked. This print not only pays homage to these brave men but also provides an insight into Indian culture and Asian history. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported back in time to witness one small yet significant chapter in India's rich military heritage. It serves as a reminder of both the sacrifices made by those who came before us and our shared human capacity for courage amidst adversity.
