EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the "Plan of General Robertss March from Cabul to Candahar" during the late 19th century. Taken from the renowned book "British Battles on Land and Sea, Vol. IV" by James Grant, this map offers a glimpse into British military strategy in Afghanistan. The intricate details of the route highlight the division's march through Kabul and towards Kandahar, two crucial locations during the Anglo-Afghan War. The monochrome aesthetic adds a sense of historical authenticity to this powerful image. Lord Frederick Sleigh Roberts, also known as Baron Roberts of Kandahar and Waterford or Earl Roberts, was at the helm of this daring expedition. His strategic brilliance is evident in this carefully planned march depicted on the map. As we explore this print further, it becomes clear that it represents more than just a military campaign; it symbolizes Britain's imperialistic ambitions during that era. The significance of imperialism is not lost within these lines and contours. Preserved by The Print Collector29, this piece serves as both an artistic representation and a historical document. It allows us to delve into literature that shaped our understanding of warfare strategies in centuries past. With its rich history embedded within each stroke, this print stands as a testament to General Robertss' triumphs while shedding light on Britain's role in shaping Afghanistan's destiny during the 19th century.
