EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the native officers of the 44th Gurkhas, Indian army, in 1896. The artist behind this masterpiece is none other than Bourne & Shepherd, renowned for their exceptional talent in capturing historical moments through their lens. In this striking portrait, we see Lieutenant JA Wilson, the adjutant of the 44th Gurkhas, standing tall amongst his fellow native commissioned officers. Each officer exudes strength and pride as they don their military uniforms and distinctive headgear that represents their Nepalese heritage. The image transports us back to a significant era in history when Britain's influence extended across continents. It serves as a testament to the bravery and loyalty of these Gurkha soldiers who fought alongside British forces during times of war. Their stern expressions hint at the challenges they faced on battlefields far from home. Yet, despite being so far away from Nepal's mountains and valleys, these men remained connected to their roots while serving under the British flag. Bourne & Shepherd skillfully captured not only a group portrait but also a glimpse into an extraordinary bond between two nations. This photograph stands as a reminder of the shared history between Britain and Nepal—a connection forged through sacrifice and camaraderie on distant battlegrounds. As we gaze upon this remarkable image over a century later, it evokes admiration for these brave soldiers who left an indelible mark on military history—an enduring tribute to their unwavering dedication to duty.
