EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in history during the Second Anglo-Afghan War. Titled "The Afghan Campaign, practising Revolver Shooting at the 'Ameer'" this engraving showcases a group of military personnel engaged in target practice. Taken by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print is now part of a private collection. The image depicts soldiers honing their revolver shooting skills under the watchful eye of their commanding officer. The intensity on their faces reveals their determination to excel in combat. The backdrop of Afghanistan's rugged terrain adds depth to the scene, emphasizing the challenging conditions faced by these brave soldiers during their campaign. This illustration originally appeared in The Graphic newspaper on November 2nd, 1878. Through this artwork, we catch a glimpse into an era marked by conflict and exploration. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought for their countries' interests abroad. As we admire this historical artifact from Bridgeman Images' Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection, let us reflect upon the courage and resilience displayed by these men as they prepared for battle. Their dedication to mastering revolver shooting demonstrates not only their commitment to duty but also highlights the importance placed on skill development within military campaigns. This print encapsulates both artistic beauty and historical significance, making it a valuable addition to any collection or exhibition celebrating our shared past.
