"The Charge of the 3rd Light Horse Brigade at the Nek, 7 August 1915 (detail)" is a significant historical painting by the Australian artist George Lambert. Completed in 1924, this work is a poignant representation of one of the most tragic episodes of the Gallipoli campaign during World War I. The painting captures the moment when the Australian 3rd Light Horse Brigade, under miscommunication and against insurmountable odds, charged the Turkish trenches at the Battle of the Nek on the Gallipoli Peninsula.

Lambert, who was an official war artist for the Australian Imperial Force, created this work based on both eyewitness accounts and his own experiences, as he visited Gallipoli in 1919 to gain a deeper understanding of the terrain and the conditions faced by the soldiers. His commitment to authenticity is reflected in the meticulous detail of the uniforms, the desperate energy of the charging soldiers, and the stark, barren landscape that became synonymous with the Gallipoli campaign.

Measuring approximately 152.5 x 305.5 cm, the painting is a large-scale work that conveys the drama and futility of war. The composition is notable for its dynamic movement and the emotional intensity of the soldiers' expressions. The use of light and shadow, as well as the dusty, earthy color palette, enhances the sense of chaos and impending doom.

"The Charge of the 3rd Light Horse Brigade at the Nek, 7 August 1915 (detail)" is held in the collection of the Australian War Memorial in Canberra. It serves as a powerful reminder of the courage and sacrifice of the ANZAC troops and is an important piece of Australia's military and artistic heritage. The painting is not only a work of art but also a historical document, capturing a defining moment in Australia's national identity and the collective memory of the First World War.
