1879 Addressing Decisive Favour Final Held Lancers Lances Newdigate Ranks Tide Turned Ulundi Victory Zulu
EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures the moment of determination and resolve among the British forces during the final stages of the Zulu War. In the foreground, General Newdigate addresses his men, with ranks of lances held high in the air. The tide had already turned in favor of the British at the Battle of Gingindhlovu, a pivotal engagement fought on July 28, 1879. The decisive victory at Ulundi, which followed just a few weeks later on September 4, would mark the end of the war and solidify British control over the Zulu Kingdom. General Newdigate's impassioned speech would have been filled with words of encouragement and motivation, as the British forces prepared to face the formidable Zulu army one last time. The men, dressed in their red coats and armed with their lances, stand at attention, their faces a mix of focus and determination. The sun casts a warm glow over the scene, adding an air of heroism and triumph. This historical photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, is a poignant reminder of the courage and resilience displayed by both sides during the Zulu War. It is a testament to the importance of leadership, strategy, and the indomitable human spirit in the face of adversity. The image has been carefully preserved and is now available as a high-quality print from Mary Evans Prints Online, providing a unique and valuable addition to any history or military collection.
