EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a pivotal moment during the Second Anglo-Afghan War (1878-1880) in 1880. In December 1879, British troops faced immense difficulties as they made their way through the Jugdulluk Pass to reinforce General Roberts at Cabul (Kabul). The image showcases the challenging terrain of Afghanistan, with soldiers navigating a block in the pass. The soldiers depicted in this wood engraving are seen wearing military uniforms and carrying artillery weapons. Amidst the hardships of war, some find solace in tobacco, as one soldier is shown smoking a pipe. The monochrome composition adds depth and intensity to the scene, emphasizing both the harshness of warfare and the determination of these men. Lord Frederick Sleigh Roberts, renowned for his leadership during this conflict, captured this powerful moment through his lens. His expertise as a field marshal is evident in every detail of this print. Lord Roberts' contribution to documenting historical events like these has left an indelible mark on our understanding of imperialism and nineteenth-century conflicts. This photograph serves as a reminder of not only the physical challenges faced by British troops but also highlights their resilience amidst adversity. It offers us insight into an important period in history when geographical features such as mountains played significant roles in shaping military strategies. As we reflect upon this image from Heritage Images collection by Lord Frederick Sleigh Roberts, it sparks contemplation about war's impact on individuals and nations alike while urging us to remember those who fought bravely during times of conflict.
