EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Tangent Sight for an English Cannon, crafted in 1609. Published in 1868 as part of "The British Army: Its Origins, Progress and Equipment" this historical engraving offers a glimpse into the weaponry used by the British military during the seventeenth century. The Tangent Sight, depicted with intricate detail, was a revolutionary device designed to enhance accuracy and alignment when firing cannons. This marker played a crucial role in improving the effectiveness of English artillery during battles. Displayed against a stark background, this illustration transports us back to an era where warfare relied heavily on skillful marksmanship and advanced weaponry. The craftsmanship of this Tangent Sight is evident through its precise engravings and meticulous design. As we admire this piece from Ken Welsh's private collection, it serves as a reminder of England's rich history and its contributions to military technology. It also highlights how advancements made centuries ago continue to shape our understanding of warfare today. This remarkable print not only captures the essence of seventeenth-century weapon development but also provides insight into the evolution of military tactics throughout history.
