EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Abyssinian Expedition, the Naval Rocket Brigade firing Rockets at Senafe" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an anonymous English School artist during the 19th century, this print showcases a dramatic scene from the military campaign. Intriguingly detailed, the image transports us to Ethiopia (formerly known as Abyssinia) during the famous expedition. The focus of attention lies on the Naval Rocket Brigade as they unleash their powerful rockets towards Senafe. The intensity of their actions is palpable; one can almost hear and feel the thunderous roar and vibrations that must have accompanied each launch. Amidst this chaos, horses gallop with determination through billowing smoke and dust clouds. Their presence adds an element of urgency and movement to an already dynamic composition. It is evident that every figure depicted here plays a crucial role in this historical event. "The Abyssinian Expedition" engraving was originally published in The Illustrated London News on July 11th, 1868 – a testament to its significance even during its time. Preserved within a private collection today, it serves as both a reminder of past triumphs and hardships faced by those involved in military campaigns. Through this artwork's skillful execution and attention to detail, we are transported back in time – witnessing firsthand the bravery and firepower unleashed by the Naval Rocket Brigade during their mission at Senafe.
