EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph that captures the intensity and bravery of the British army during the Battle of Maiwand in 1880. The print, created by Frank Feller, depicts a pivotal moment in history when the 2nd Battalion Berkshire Regiment made their last stand against Afghan forces. In this powerful image, we see a group of soldiers on horseback and infantrymen standing together on the battlefield. Their determined expressions and poised stances reveal their unwavering commitment to defend their position. The chaos and violence surrounding them are evident as smoke billows from cannons and gunfire fills the air. The Battle of Maiwand was one of the most significant battles in the Second Anglo-Afghan War, resulting in a devastating defeat for the British army. Despite being outnumbered, these brave men fought valiantly until only eleven remained standing – hence earning them the title "The Last Eleven". This lithograph serves as a poignant reminder of sacrifice and resilience exhibited by these soldiers. It immortalizes their courage and dedication to duty while highlighting an important chapter in military history. "The Last Eleven at Maiwand" is not just an artwork; it is a testament to human strength amidst adversity. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of those who have fought before us, inspiring us to honor their memory through our own acts of bravery and determination.
