EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to a significant moment in history - the Afghan War of 1879. Titled "The Afghan War: a Raid against the Momunds. The 11th Bengal Lancers Crossing the Kunar River" this image transports us to a time when bravery and valor were put to test. In this engraving, we witness the fearless soldiers of the 11th Bengal Lancers fearlessly crossing the mighty Kunar River, ready to engage in battle with their adversaries, the Momunds. The artist's illustrative technique beautifully captures both the intensity of war and Victorian-era aesthetics. The vintage retro style adds an air of nostalgia, reminding us of how far we have come since those turbulent times. It serves as a reminder that history shapes our present and future. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are transported into an era where conflicts were fought on horseback and rivers served as formidable obstacles. We can almost hear echoes of hooves splashing through waterways and feel adrenaline coursing through our veins. While appreciating this piece for its artistic value, let us also remember its historical significance - it immortalizes not only an event but also pays tribute to all those who sacrificed their lives during that tumultuous period.
