EDITORS COMMENTS
The Rising in Rhodesia (litho) captures a pivotal moment in history, depicting the rebellion and subsequent disbanding of native workmen in the gold mines of Rhodesia. Created by Charles Edwin Fripp, this lithograph was originally published as an illustration for The Graphic on September 5th, 1896. The scene showcases Colonel Plumer leading the Buluwayo Field Force troops through the rugged terrain of Matoppo Hills. Resting after their arduous journey, they observe the disbanding of native workmen at a compound. This powerful image encapsulates both the struggles faced by colonizers and indigenous people during this tumultuous period. Rhodesia, now known as Zimbabwe, was a hotbed for conflict due to its rich resources and colonial ambitions. The rising depicted here symbolizes resistance against oppressive forces while shedding light on complex dynamics between different groups involved. With impeccable detail and skillful engraving techniques, Fripp masterfully brings this historical event to life. His portrayal not only highlights significant moments but also evokes emotions that resonate with viewers even today. This print from Fine Art Finder allows us to delve into history and gain a deeper understanding of past events that have shaped our world. It serves as a reminder of how art can capture important narratives and provoke thoughtful reflection.
