EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the brave soldiers of the Madras Army in 1835. The artwork, created by an unknown artist from Tanjore, depicts four distinguished individuals - Naik (corporal) from the 48th Regiment Native Infantry, Havildar (sergeant) from the 10th Regiment Native Infantry, Sepoy from the 48th Regiment Native Infantry, and Lance Naik from the 10th Regiment Native Infantry. The watercolor painting on European paper beautifully captures their uniforms and intricate details. Although little is known about this prolific Tanjore artist, his works all originate from the 1830s. It is believed that this particular piece was commissioned for an officer associated with both regiments depicted. Each soldier exudes strength and pride through their posture and expressions.

Preserved at London's National Army Museum, this print offers a glimpse into India's rich military heritage. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by these valiant men who dedicated themselves to protecting their country and its people. Through this artwork, we are transported back to a time when bravery knew no bounds and loyalty ran deep within these noble soldiers' veins.
