EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative image captures a moment during the Mahdist War in Sudan, specifically the Sudan Campaign at Massowah between 1881 and 1889. The photograph depicts a group of native Sudanese men gathered on the quayside, some of whom are seen diving into the sea. The atmosphere is one of both tension and relaxation, as the men take a break from the ongoing conflict that raged around them. The Mahdist War, also known as the Sudanese Revolution, was a religious and political uprising led by the Mahdi Muhammad Ahmad ibn Abd Allah against the ruling Ottoman Turks and their Egyptian overlords. The conflict lasted from 1881 to 1889 and resulted in the establishment of the Mahdist State, which lasted until 1898. Massowah, located on the Red Sea coast, was an important strategic point during the war. The British, who were supporting the Egyptian forces, launched several attacks on the town in an attempt to gain control of the port and secure their supply lines. The photograph likely depicts a moment of respite for the native population during one of these battles. The lantern slide, part of the Boswell Collection held by Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a unique glimpse into this turbulent period of Sudanese history. The image invites us to reflect on the human experiences of war and the ways in which people found moments of joy and relaxation amidst the chaos and violence.
