Our First Advance into the Enemy's Country
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a pivotal moment during the Second Boer War in South Africa. The lithograph, created by Samuel Begg and published in The Illustrated London News on February 10,1900, depicts colonial troops surprising the Boers at Lubbes Hoop Farm. In this dramatic scene, mounted infantry soldiers are shown launching a surprise attack on the unsuspecting Boers. The tension is palpable as they advance through rugged terrain towards their enemy's stronghold. With determination etched on their faces, these brave colonial troops embody courage and resilience in the face of adversity. Begg's masterful engraving skillfully conveys the chaos and intensity of battle. Every detail is meticulously captured – from billowing smoke to charging horses – immersing viewers in this historic event. This print serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by both sides during this brutal conflict. It also highlights the significant role played by colonial troops who fought alongside British forces against the fiercely independent Boer fighters. As we gaze upon "Our First Advance into the Enemy's Country" we are transported back to that fateful day when history was forged amidst gunfire and bravery. This artwork stands as a testament to human resilience and serves as an enduring symbol of valor for generations to come.
