The March to Pretoria
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph that takes us back in time to the Second Boer War, specifically to the Rhenoster Drift in South Africa. The image showcases a military patrol carefully examining railway lines as they march towards Pretoria. Created by Melton Prior and published in The Illustrated London News on June 30,1900, this print offers a glimpse into the intensity of war. In this engraving, Prior masterfully captures the tension and danger faced by soldiers during their advance. The composition draws our attention to the intricate details of the landscape, highlighting boer rifle pits strategically placed along their path. It also reveals an intriguing aspect of Boer warfare: their method of destroying railway lines. The scene is filled with historical significance as it documents a crucial moment in history when British forces were pushing forward towards Pretoria. Through this artwork, we are transported to an era where conflict was prevalent and every step taken required vigilance. This particular print from Bridgeman Images' collection allows us to appreciate not only Prior's artistic talent but also his ability to convey the reality of war through his engravings. As we gaze upon "The March to Pretoria" we can't help but be reminded of the sacrifices made by those who fought for their nations during tumultuous times like these.
