"Encampment of the Kandahar Army under General Nott, outside the walls of Caubul, on the evacuation of Afghanistan by the British" is a historical lithograph created by James Rattray, a British officer and artist known for his works depicting scenes from the First Anglo-Afghan War (1839–1842). This particular plate, engraved by R. Carrick and published in 1848, is the fifth in a series from Rattray's notable work, "Scenery, Inhabitants and Costumes of Afghanistan."

The lithograph captures a pivotal moment in British military history, illustrating the encampment of British forces led by General William Nott as they prepared to leave Kabul during the retreat from Afghanistan. The scene is set against the backdrop of the city's fortifications, providing a visual narrative of the military and political complexities of the time. Rattray's attention to detail not only offers a glimpse into the military aspects but also provides insights into the landscape, architecture, and daily life in Afghanistan during the period.

The series "Scenery, Inhabitants and Costumes of Afghanistan" is significant for its ethnographic and topographic portrayal of Afghanistan in the 19th century. Rattray's work is considered an important historical record, as it was created during a time of limited photographic documentation. His lithographs are valued for their artistic merit as well as their contribution to the understanding of British imperial history and the cultural heritage of Afghanistan.

The lithograph "Encampment of the Kandahar Army under General Nott, outside the walls of Caubul, on the evacuation of Afghanistan by the British" is a testament to the intersection of art and history, reflecting the experiences of British military campaigns in the region and offering a window into a bygone era.
