EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage illustration captures the intense and strategic Plan of Battle of Charasiab during the Second Anglo-Afghan War in 1879. Led by Major-General Sir Frederick Roberts, the British forces faced off against Nek Mohammed Khan, Governor of Kabul, and uncle to Yakub Khan, the former Amir. The print showcases a pivotal moment when the British successfully drove out Afghan troops from their hilltop positions surrounding Charasiab. The detailed depiction highlights the meticulous planning and execution required for such a significant military operation. It serves as a testament to Major-General Roberts' leadership skills and his ability to rally his troops towards victory. With this triumph over Afghan resistance at Charasiab, the British regained control over crucial supply routes and were able to resume their advance on Kabul. This artwork not only commemorates an important historical event but also provides insight into Victorian-era warfare strategies. Its inclusion in Fine Art Storehouse's collection underscores its artistic value beyond its historical significance. As viewers gaze upon this print, they are transported back in time to witness a critical battle that shaped geopolitical dynamics between Britain and Afghanistan during this tumultuous period
