The Australian Light Horse Charge Canvas Print is a limited-edition product that captures a historic moment in the Middle East. This iconic piece depicts the brave men and horses of the Australian Light Horse charging the Turkish stronghold of Beersheba on October 31, 1917. It was one of the last great cavalry charges in military history and one of the most successful.
The men and horses, after nearly 60 hours without water, galloped over 3 miles of open plain, facing shell and machine-gun fire. Their instinctive need for water fuelled the urgency of the attack, and once they smelled it, there was no stopping them. Within an hour, Beersheba was won, and the precious wells were saved. This victory was strategically important as it opened the way to the taking of Palestine and Jerusalem.
Now, you can own a piece of this historic moment with our limited-edition canvas print.
