EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Evacuation of Zululand, the M Battery of Artillery crossing a Drift" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print captures the essence of the Anglo-Zulu War. In this scene, we witness a crucial military maneuver as the M Battery of Artillery skillfully navigates across a drift in South Africa. The horses pull with determination, their muscles straining against the current while carrying vital artillery equipment. The soldiers stand tall and resolute on their carriages, ready to defend and protect. The image exudes both tension and bravery. It serves as a poignant reminder of the challenges faced during wartime evacuations. As we gaze upon this historic artwork, we are transported to that fateful day when Zululand was being evacuated amidst conflict. Originally published in The Illustrated London News on October 11th, 1879, this engraving offers us insight into an important chapter in our shared past. It stands as a testament to human resilience and sacrifice during times of war. Now preserved within a private collection but made available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder platform, this print invites us to reflect upon history's lessons while appreciating its artistic beauty. Let it serve as both an educational tool and a visual delight for all who encounter it – reminding us never to forget those who fought bravely for what they believed in.
