EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "With 'Methuens Horse' on the Way to Bechuanaland, South Africa" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into a significant moment in history. The artwork, created by French artist Durand Godefroy in 1885, showcases an expeditionary force known as "Methuens Horse" making their way through South Africa. In this scene, we find ourselves at Langford Camp during the early morning hours. The image is filled with action and movement as military personnel navigate their way across the Orange River. Horses can be seen struggling through the water while a pontoon appears stuck in front of a first-class compartment. The print beautifully captures both the challenges and determination faced by these soldiers during their journey to Bechuanaland (now Botswana). It serves as a testament to their bravery and resilience in traversing unfamiliar territories for exploration or military purposes. Durand's artistic skill shines through in his attention to detail, from the intricate depiction of each horse to the realistic portrayal of water splashing around them. This engraving not only provides historical insight but also stands as a work of art that reflects French culture and artistic traditions of its time. Overall, this print invites viewers into an important chapter of South African history while showcasing Durand Godefroy's talent as an artist capturing moments that would otherwise fade into obscurity.
