1879 1879 Engraving Afghan Afghanistan Khan Tribes Tajik
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection takes us back to a significant moment in history - the War in Afghanistan. The image showcases men belonging to different Afghan tribes, specifically focusing on Mahaz Khan, a Tajik leader and Khan of Pesh Bolak. The engraving, dated 1879, beautifully captures the essence of this era with its illustrative technique and Victorian style. The attention to detail is remarkable as it portrays the intricate clothing and facial features of each individual. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness the diversity within Afghan society during this tumultuous period. These men represent various tribes that coexisted amidst conflict, highlighting their unique cultural backgrounds and traditions. The retro-styled vintage aesthetic adds an additional layer of intrigue to this historical piece. It transports us back to a time when engravement was considered an art form itself. As we gaze upon this thought-provoking print by 000026 from Arkheia's collection, we are reminded of the power of visual storytelling. It serves as a reminder that behind every war lies complex narratives shaped by individuals like Mahaz Khan who played pivotal roles in shaping Afghanistan's history.
