"After The Battle, Tel-el-Kebir" is a notable mezzotint created by the British engraver Richard Josey in the late 19th century. The work is a reproduction of an original painting by Elizabeth Thompson, also known as Lady Butler, who was renowned for her military subjects and historical accuracy. The piece captures the aftermath of the Battle of Tel-el-Kebir, which took place on September 13, 1882, during the Anglo-Egyptian War. This battle was a decisive victory for the British forces under the command of Sir Garnet Wolseley, leading to the occupation of Egypt and the establishment of British control over the Suez Canal.

Richard Josey's mezzotint is celebrated for its meticulous attention to detail and the ability to convey the somber mood following the conflict. The scene depicted shows the battlefield strewn with the remnants of war, including fallen soldiers and abandoned equipment, highlighting the grim reality of military engagements. Josey's technique in mezzotint, a printmaking process known for its rich tonal range and subtle gradations, effectively brings out the emotional depth and historical significance of the original painting.

The collaboration between Josey and Lady Butler is a testament to the period's artistic endeavors to document and interpret contemporary historical events. Lady Butler's works were highly regarded for their realism and emotional impact, and Josey's engravings played a crucial role in making these images accessible to a broader audience. "After The Battle, Tel-el-Kebir" stands as an important cultural artifact, reflecting both the artistic skill of its creators and the historical context of the British Empire's military campaigns in the late 19th century.
