EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating engraving titled "Major-General Fs Roberts, VC, CB, commanding the Forces in the Khoorum Pass" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an anonymous English School artist from the 19th century, this print showcases Major-General Frederick Sleigh Roberts as he leads his troops through the treacherous Khoorum Pass. Roberts, adorned with prestigious military honors including the Victoria Cross and Companion of Bath (CB), stands tall and resolute at the forefront of his forces. His unwavering command is evident as he gazes into the distance with determination etched on his face. The Khoorum Pass itself serves as a formidable backdrop to this scene. Its rugged terrain and towering cliffs symbolize both danger and opportunity for Roberts and his men. As they traverse this challenging landscape, their unity is palpable; each soldier ready to follow their esteemed leader's every order. This engraving originally appeared in The Illustrated London News on December 14th, 1878. It captures not only a specific moment but also embodies the spirit of courage and leadership that defined Major-General Fs Roberts' career. Now preserved within a private collection, this artwork allows us to reflect upon an era when bravery was celebrated and military prowess revered.
