From Shira Badakshi
The second caricature is from The Magazine Punch, 1880, depicting the war between Afghanistan and Great Britain.
The drawing symbolizes the fall of colonialism and a struggle that has lasted over a century and a half. Whether under the names of the Soviet Union, the Taliban, the Mujahideen, or American forces, this land has always borne wounds, with the memories of war and suffering etched deeply into its soil.
