- Lot Description
Framed. Good condition. Has two vertical crinkles from folding. Robert Gottlieb Collection2023 - Shchukin Gallery The Attack in the Kurram Valley (1901) depicts a key incident during the Second Anglo-Afghan War (1878?1880) in the Kurram Valley, located in the North-West Frontier Province of India (now Pakistan). In March 1878, Sir Frederick Roberts, 1st Earl Roberts (1832?1914), was appointed to lead the Kurram Field Force during the conflict, which was part of the broader British effort to assert control over Afghanistan and secure British interests in the region. The Kurram Valley, a strategic pass leading into Afghanistan, was a key battleground due to its importance in controlling access to the Afghan heartland. Roberts led his troops through difficult terrain and faced fierce resistance from Afghan forces. His leadership in the valley was a pivotal moment in the war, and despite harsh conditions and ambushes, Roberts' force succeeded in achieving British objectives. The attack marked an important chapter in the British military campaign in the region, contributing to Roberts' rising reputation as a skilled commander, which would later play a significant role in his leadership during the Second Anglo-Boer War and his subsequent rise to prominence in British military history.Richard Caton Woodville (1856?1927) was a British genre painter and illustrator, known for his dynamic depictions of military life, particularly scenes of the British Army. His illustrations, which appeared in magazines like The Illustrated London News, were widely popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. 21*26.75/ 13*19.25 inThe item you're interested in is in good condition.
