EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "The Indian Frontier Rising, Camp Sheranni, Tochi Valley, Highlanders marching down a Defile" takes us back to the late 19th century in India. Created by Henry Charles Seppings Wright and featured in The Illustrated London News on October 9,1897, this print offers a glimpse into the military life of the time. In this scene, we witness a group of Highlanders proudly marching through a narrow pass known as a defile in the rugged Tochi Valley. Their disciplined formation and determined expressions reflect their commitment to protecting the Indian frontier. The lush landscape surrounding them adds an element of natural beauty amidst their martial presence. Camp Sheranni serves as their temporary home during this campaign. Situated in what is now Pakistan but was then part of British India, it stands as a symbol of colonial power and control over these borderlands. This lithograph not only captures an important moment in history but also highlights the cultural diversity present within India at that time. It showcases both indigenous Indians and Asian influences from neighboring regions. As we admire this artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, let us appreciate its historical significance and acknowledge the bravery and sacrifice of those who served on these frontiers long ago.
