EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history, showcasing the engraving titled "England and Afghanistan". Created by an anonymous English School artist in the 19th century, this artwork is part of a private collection. The image was originally published as an illustration for The Graphic on 25 December 1880. The scene depicted in the engraving portrays a ceremonial event during the Second Anglo-Afghan War. General Sir F. Roberts, accompanied by Lord Lytton, can be seen signing documents while surrounded by military personnel and distinguished guests. The atmosphere is filled with jubilation as three cheers are raised to celebrate England's triumph. The setting of this historic occasion takes place at St James's Hall in London. Notably present are members of the Merchant Taylors Company who have gathered to witness this momentous event unfold. This engraving serves as a testament to England's commitment to freedom and its role in shaping international relations during that era. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this piece from their Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection, allowing us to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance today. As we gaze upon this remarkable print, we are transported back in time to relive a pivotal chapter between England and Afghanistan – one that forever left its mark on both nations' histories.
