Sketches at the Military Tournament of 1897: A Vibrant Depiction of Military Displays by John Carlton This colour photolithograph, titled "Sketches at the Military Tournament, 1897," is a visual feast that transports us back in time to an era of grand military displays. Created by renowned artist John Carlton, this print is a meticulous documentation of various military events that took place during the tournament. The image is divided into six captivating vignettes, each showcasing a unique aspect of military life. In the first vignette, we witness the thrill of bareback riding and vaulting, where horse and rider display a breathtaking synchronicity. The second vignette captures the galloping Royal Horse Artillery, their horses' hooves pounding the ground as they charge forward with unyielding determination. The third vignette presents a Cavalry ambush, where soldiers lie in wait, poised to pounce on unsuspecting enemies. The fourth vignette showcases the skill and precision involved in tent pegging, an equestrian sport where riders aim to insert tent pegs into the ground using a lance. The fifth vignette highlights a bridging detachment of the Royal Engineers, demonstrating their expertise in constructing a makeshift bridge over a river or other obstacle. Lastly, the sixth vignette depicts a sword versus bayonet encounter, a testament to the physical prowess and combat skills of the soldiers. This stunning print, published as a supplement to The Graphic on May 29, 1897, offers a fascinating glimpse into the military life of the late 19th century. John Carlton's masterful depiction of these military scenes not only captures the essence of the tournament but also showcases the courage, skill, and discipline of the soldiers involved.
