Capture of the Kelly Gang - A Glimpse into Australia's Infamous Outlaws
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This engraving, titled "Capture of the Kelly Gang of Australian Bushrangers" takes us back to a significant moment in Australian history. Created by Joseph Nash in 1880, this artwork depicts the dramatic capture of the notorious Kelly Gang. The scene unfolds amidst the ruins of Glenrowan, where Ned Kelly and his gang made their last stand against law enforcement. Clad in their distinctive bush costumes and armed with rifles, they are shown besieged by a determined group of policemen and soldiers. At its center stands Ned Kelly himself, wearing his iconic suit of armor that became synonymous with his name. The black tracker alongside him adds an intriguing element to this historic event. Joseph Nash masterfully captures the intensity and chaos surrounding this pivotal moment. His attention to detail brings out every mesh size on the armor plates worn by both outlaws and authorities alike. This engraving not only showcases Nash's artistic talent but also serves as a reminder of Australia's criminal past. It immortalizes one chapter in the country's struggle for law and order during the 19th century. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder, we are transported back in time to witness firsthand a defining moment that shaped Australia's identity as it emerged from its wild frontier days.
