EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures the determined and resolute visage of Lieutenant General Sir Archibald Murray, who assumed command of the Allied forces in Palestine following the departure of Sir Charles Monro in December 1915. Known for his strategic acumen and unwavering resolve, Murray is best remembered for leading the first successful attack against the Turkish forces at Gaza on March 26, 1917. This victory marked a turning point in the Gallipoli campaign, which had been plagued by failed attempts to dislodge the Turkish defenders from their entrenched positions. Born on January 21, 1860, Murray had a distinguished military career prior to his appointment in Palestine. He had served in the Sudan Campaign, the Second Boer War, and the Balkan Wars. His experience and leadership were invaluable in the challenging theater of operations in Palestine, where he faced not only formidable Turkish forces but also the harsh desert conditions. Murray's tenure as commander of the Allied forces in Palestine was marked by a series of successful engagements against the Turkish forces, culminating in the capture of Jerusalem in December 1917. His leadership and strategic prowess played a crucial role in the eventual Allied victory in the Middle East. This portrait, taken in 1916, captures the essence of a great military leader, whose courage and determination helped turn the tide of the Gallipoli campaign and pave the way for Allied success in the Middle East during World War I.
