The Opening up of Nigeria, the Expedition against the Aros
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating lithograph that transports us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Richard Caton Woodville II, this print captures the essence of an expeditionary mission undertaken by West African troops in their quest to clear a village and establish control over the Aros tribe. The scene depicted is both dramatic and thought-provoking. The artist skillfully portrays the intensity of military action as soldiers engage with tribal warriors amidst a backdrop of lush Nigerian landscapes. Every detail, from the determined expressions on their faces to the intricately engraved weaponry they wield, adds depth and authenticity to this powerful image. Woodville's work not only showcases his artistic prowess but also serves as an important historical document. Published in The Illustrated London News in 1901, it sheds light on Britain's efforts to expand its influence during colonial times. This engraving offers viewers a glimpse into an era marked by exploration, conquest, and cultural clashes. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of Nigeria's rich heritage and complex past.
