This print captures a significant historical event, "The Defeat of Hyder Ali by Sir Eyre Coote in 1781". The engraving, created by an English School artist in the 19th century, showcases the intense battle scene between British soldiers and Indian forces in Porto Novo, India. In this dramatic composition, we witness the bravery and strategic prowess of Sir Eyre Coote as he leads his troops to victory against Hyder Ali's army. The image is filled with action and tension; soldiers engage fiercely on both sides while mounted on majestic elephants adorned with ornate howdahs. The contrasting tones of black and white add depth to the print, emphasizing every detail from the expressions on the faces of combatants to their intricate uniforms. This historic moment serves as a testament to British military strength during colonial times.
