EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Mysore Rocket Man, 1793-94" by Robert Home showcases the historical figure Sultan Fateh Ali Sahab Tipu, famously known as Tipu Sultan. As the ruler of the Kingdom of Mysore during the late 18th century, Tipu Sultan was renowned for his innovative use of rocket artillery. The artwork depicts a full-length portrait of an infantryman dressed in traditional attire. The soldier wears a Tyger Jacket and a long purple woollen shirt adorned with white diamond-shaped spots. A vibrant red and white muslin turban complements the sash around his waist, completing his uniform. With bare feet firmly planted on the ground, this warrior leans over with outstretched arms, showcasing both strength and determination. His presence exudes power and resilience. The painting serves as a testament to Tipu Sultan's significant contributions to military history during the Anglo-Mysore Wars. It highlights not only his mastery of weaponry but also his commitment to preserving Indian culture and traditions. Derek Bayes expertly captures this historical moment through his lens, allowing viewers to appreciate both the artistic beauty and cultural significance within this piece. This print is a remarkable tribute to an influential figure who forever changed warfare tactics in India during the 18th century.
