EDITORS COMMENTS
The Flight from Lucknow 1857 AD: A Glimpse into the Turmoil of History". This photo print, titled "The Flight from Lucknow 1857 AD" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The colour lithograph, created by Abraham Soloman in the mid-19th century, depicts a scene from the Indian Rebellion of 1857. Now part of a private collection and published in Cassells History of England around 1920, this artwork offers a unique perspective on an important event. In this image, we witness the aftermath of conflict as British soldiers and civilians flee for their lives. The costumes worn by both sides vividly depict the clash between cultures during that time. Amongst them is a wounded woman seeking refuge with her children amidst chaos and uncertainty. The photograph not only captures the physical injuries suffered during battle but also hints at deeper wounds inflicted upon society itself. It serves as a reminder of how historical events shape our present reality and influence future generations. Moreover, this powerful image sheds light on the crucial role played by medicine and healthcare during times of war. It highlights the desperate need for medical attention as injured individuals navigate through perilous circumstances. "The Flight from Lucknow 1857 AD" invites viewers to reflect upon themes such as resilience, sacrifice, and cultural exchange within historical contexts. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing piece, let us remember those who endured these tumultuous times while appreciating how far we have come since then.
