EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - "The Recent Disturbances in Zululand; Royal Scots Disembarking at Durban, Natal, 1888". The image showcases the arrival of the Royal Scots regiment in Durban, South Africa during the late 19th century. In this snapshot frozen in time, we see a group of men disembarking from their landing craft onto the shores of Durban. Clad in military uniforms, these brave soldiers stand tall and proud as they step foot on African soil. Their presence symbolizes Britain's colonial influence and its expansion into new territories. The composition is strikingly powerful with its contrast between light and dark tones. The use of black and white adds depth to the scene while emphasizing the historical significance of this momentous event. As we delve deeper into this image, we are transported back to an era when transportation by water was crucial for long-distance travel. Pulleys can be seen hanging above the landing craft, suggesting that unloading supplies was no easy task. Although created by an unknown artist for The Graphic newspaper volume 38 published in 1888, this print serves as a valuable visual record of British imperialism during Victorian times. It reminds us of both the triumphs and challenges faced by those involved in colonialism on the African continent.
