Show morePhotograph album documenting the British campaigns in Afghanistan during the so-called Great Game. Most of the photographs portray British troops, officers, camps, views of cities, ruins, pieces of artillery, antiquities, Buddha statues, and landscapes. Most of the photographs were taken by professional photographer John Burke. Burke first served in India as an apothecary assistant in the Royal Artillery. He left the army in 1861 to join William Baker, a retired sergeant who had started a photographic studio in Peshawar. Together they formed Baker and Burke Studio (1867–72), the first commercial studio in that region. In 1873 he established his firm, Burke & Co. (1873-1900) with studios in Peshawar, Rawalpindi, and Lahore. Thanks to his military background, Burke was able to accompany most of the British military campaigns in Afghanistan from the late 1860s to 1897. Out of this experience, he published a series of commercially produced albums collectively known as the Afghan War Album. As seen in this album, probably compiled by an officer or an amateur who collected loose prints, in addition to military subjects, Burke also produced views of landscapes and archaeological sites, as well as pictures of imperial offices and pageants, bazaars, mosques, and palaces in Lahore. 1878-79: The second Infantry Brigade (General Tytler) in the Afghan Campaign 1878-79 at Safed Sang ; The 2nd Infantry Brigade in Neemla [Nimlah] Bagh ; Officer Army Medical dep. with Khyber field force in Afghan campaigns Safed Sang [Ali] Masjid [Fort] 1879 ; Jumrood Fort ; Group of Natives Khyber Pass. ; Ali Musjid.
