(Signed) Henry Creed Lithograph, locally produced, printed area 95 x 235mm (3¾ x 9¼"). Folds, creases and nicks; paper stuck on top left. Very rare. Unusual lithograph by an amateur artist previously unknown to us. The print depicts the storming of Khelat in Afghanistan in 1839, when British forces were called upon to recapture the fort after the insurgent Mehrah Khan had deposed and murdered the former ruler.
