EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures Sir Harry Smith, a historical figure known for his controversial actions as a soldier and administrator in South Africa during the 19th century. Born in 1787, Smith's arrogance and incompetence led to catastrophic consequences for the Xhosa people, also known as Kaffirs.
In this image, Sir Harry Smith is depicted with a stern expression on his face, embodying the power and authority he held over the region at that time. His policies were insensitive to the needs of the Xhosa people, ultimately resulting in tragedy for them.
