EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Cavalry Manoeuvres of the Bangalore Division, Madras Presidency, India" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into military life in colonial India. The image showcases a scene of bustling activity as soldiers from the 21st Hussars engage in various activities during their morning rest. In the foreground, we see cavalrymen charging on horseback, demonstrating their skills and agility. Behind them, a group of soldiers can be seen capturing an enemy gun while others bring captured horses for watering. The atmosphere is one of controlled chaos as troops take advantage of this brief respite to recharge before continuing with their duties. Amidst all this action, there are moments of tranquility too. A soldier sits under the shade enjoying a game while another rests near a church parade taking place nearby. These glimpses into everyday life humanize these brave men who dedicated themselves to serving their country. The engraving not only captures the military aspect but also provides insights into Indian culture at that time. Indians can be seen participating in parlour games and ball games alongside British soldiers, showcasing cultural exchange and interaction between different communities. Overall, this print offers a fascinating window into history - depicting both the intensity and camaraderie found within military manoeuvres amidst the vibrant backdrop of colonial India's diverse society.
