The Relief of Kumassi, with Major Morriss Column
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph that takes us back to the tumultuous events of 1900 in Ghana. The print showcases the heroic efforts of Major Morriss and his military column as they storm into Kumassi, a town held captive by an unknown force. In this engraving, we witness the intensity of the moment as soldiers advance towards their objective. The stockade surrounding Kumassi stands tall in defiance, but it is no match for the determination and bravery displayed by these valiant men. Amidst the chaos, a princess can be seen at the forefront - her presence symbolizing both hope and resilience. Her regal stance amidst this big palaver signifies her unwavering spirit in defending her people's freedom. The artist, Percy F. S. Spence, masterfully captures every detail of this historical event. His attention to intricacies allows us to immerse ourselves in this significant chapter from Africa's past. This lithograph serves as a powerful reminder of our shared history and highlights the triumphs achieved through unity and courage. It invites us to reflect on how far we have come while acknowledging that there is still much work to be done. As we gaze upon "The Relief of Kumassi" let us honor those who fought for liberation and continue striving for justice in all corners of our world today.
