Created by the talented artist William Barnes Wollen, this print showcases his exceptional attention to detail and skillful rendering of historical events. The scene depicted is set during the Battle of Sobraon in 1846, an intense conflict between English forces led by Thackwell and Sikh warriors.

The costumes worn by both sides are meticulously portrayed, showcasing the distinctive attire of English soldiers as well as the traditional garments of Sikh warriors. Their weapons glint under sunlight as they clash fiercely on the battlefield. Wollen's mastery extends beyond capturing action; he also manages to convey emotion through his subjects' facial expressions. Determination, courage, and even fear can be seen etched onto their faces as they engage in this life-or-death struggle. This remarkable lithograph serves not only as a visual record but also as a testament to the bravery displayed by those involved in this historic event.
