Framed Print of The Abyssinian Expedition: arrival at Adigerat of an ambassador from Kassai, King of Tigre, 1868. Creator: Unknown
The Abyssinian Expedition: arrival at Adigerat of an ambassador from Kassai, King of Tigre, 1868. Engraving of a sketch by Mr. G. A. Henty, (war correspondent). The head of the procession consisted of three men blowing upon cowhorns...Next follows a man of tall stature beating violently upon a tomtom. Next follow the musketeers of the bodyguard...arms, any stage properties which might come conveniently to hand...the large proportion quite incapable of being fired. Next follows the ambassador of the King, on a mule, with gorgeous caparisons...bearing the tiger rampant, the arms of the great potentate his master...His hair was arranged, as is the manner of the chiefs of his people, in a series of little plaits, which ran in parallel lines from his forehead over the head to the nape of the neck...Next to the ambassador of the great King rides the Archbishop upon a mule similarly caparisoned. The Archbishop is clothed in absolutely white robes, with turban to match...Behind...rode the inferior chiefs. These, either from a feeling of modesty, or from a lack of animals, rode two upon each mule...On the left is the 33rd Regiment; next to them is the 10th Native Infantry, flanked by the Scinde Horse...Adigerat itself lies in the background'.
