EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a pivotal moment during the Battle of Blood River in the 2nd Boer War on September 17,1901. Painted by talented artist Frederick Judd Waugh, it depicts the intense clash between Major Gough's British force and Botha's Boers charging towards them at full speed. The British soldiers find themselves overwhelmed as they desperately fight to defend their position. In this monochrome image, we witness the chaos and violence of warfare in South Africa during this turbulent period of colonialism. The cavalrymen ride fiercely on horseback with guns and rifles in hand, while horses gallop alongside them amidst clouds of dust. The significance of this battle lies not only in its military implications but also in the capture of much-needed supplies such as ammunition and carbines by Botha's Boers. It serves as a reminder that even well-equipped forces can be vulnerable when faced with determined adversaries. Through Waugh's skillful brushstrokes, he brings to life the bravery and sacrifice exhibited by both sides during this brutal conflict. This historic artwork transports us back to a time when nations clashed over power and control. As we gaze upon this powerful depiction, let us remember those who fought valiantly on these blood-soaked
