EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print from 1868 showcases three different types of petards, small bombs commonly used in the seventeenth century. Figs. 1 and 3 depict conical and rectangular metal objects respectively, both containing gunpowder for explosive purposes. These compact yet powerful weapons were essential in military operations during that era. Fig. 2 captures a pipe specifically designed to carry a lighted match, which was crucial for igniting the fuse on these petards. The illustration provides insight into the weaponry utilized by the British Army at that time, shedding light on their origins, progress, and equipment. The intricate details of this print offer a glimpse into the advancements made in weapon technology during the seventeenth century. It serves as a reminder of how warfare has evolved over time and highlights the ingenuity behind creating such destructive tools. Ken Welsh's expertise is evident in capturing this historical moment through his artistry. This image not only appeals to history enthusiasts but also sparks curiosity about ancient warfare techniques and strategies employed by armies centuries ago. As we admire this snapshot from our past, it is important to acknowledge its significance within historical context rather than focusing solely on its commercial value or potential uses today.
