"Khevsurs before the Attack" is a painting by the Georgian artist Gigo Gabashvili, created in the early 20th century. Gabashvili, born in 1862 in Tbilisi, is renowned for his vivid depictions of Georgian life and culture. This particular work captures a moment of tension and anticipation among the Khevsurs, a highland ethnic group from Georgia known for their distinctive traditions and warrior culture.

The painting portrays a group of Khevsur men preparing for an imminent attack. Gabashvili's attention to detail is evident in the intricate depiction of their traditional attire, which includes chainmail, weapons, and the iconic chokha—a woolen coat with cartridge holders. The setting is a rugged mountainous landscape, characteristic of the Khevsureti region, emphasizing the harsh and challenging environment in which these people lived.

Gabashvili's use of color and light adds to the drama of the scene. The earthy tones of the landscape contrast with the vibrant colors of the Khevsurs' clothing, highlighting their readiness and resilience. The expressions and postures of the figures convey a sense of determination and solidarity, capturing the spirit of the Khevsur people.

This painting is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its ethnographic value. It provides insight into the customs and lifestyle of the Khevsurs during a period of social and political upheaval in the Caucasus region. Gabashvili's work is celebrated for its ability to convey the essence of Georgian identity and heritage.

"Khevsurs before the Attack" is part of Gabashvili's broader oeuvre, which includes portraits, landscapes, and genre scenes. His works are held in high regard and can be found in various collections, including the Georgian National Museum. Gabashvili's contribution to Georgian art remains influential, and his paintings continue to be studied and appreciated for their cultural and historical significance.
