EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to a significant moment in history - the Zulu War. The scene depicted is Fugitives Drift, Buffalo River, where Lieutenant Melvill's bravery and determination are immortalized. The image showcases the rugged beauty of South Africa's riverside landscape as it was during the 19th century. A large stone stands prominently in the foreground, serving as a symbol of survival and resilience. It was upon this very stone that Lieutenant Melvill clung for dear life during a harrowing episode of the Anglo-Zulu War. As we gaze at this print, we can almost feel the tension and fear that must have gripped those involved in this conflict. The Zulu War was marked by intense battles and desperate escapes, with Fugitives Drift being one such escape route for British soldiers fleeing from their Zulu adversaries. The artist skillfully captures both the physicality of Lieutenant Melvill clinging to the stone and also conveys his unwavering determination to survive against all odds. This engraving originally appeared in The Illustrated London News on September 6th, 1879 - an important medium through which people could witness distant events firsthand.

It invites us to reflect on our own capacity for resilience when faced with challenges – reminding us that even against seemingly insurmountable obstacles, there
