EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the dramatic scene of "The Battle of Toski: The defeat of the dervishes" from a bird's-eye view. Taken on August 3,1889, it offers a glimpse into the fierce fight that unfolded outside Toski. The image is part of the renowned Liszt Collection and was originally sketched by a British Officer who witnessed this historic event. In the photograph, we can see a prominent rock positioned at the center, serving as a strategic stronghold for the Dervishes. Their flags made of white, blue, and red silk proudly display the name of their leader, Mahdi. However, despite their valiant efforts to defend their position, they were ultimately defeated. The aftermath is hauntingly depicted in this image as well. Behind the central rock lie five hundred lifeless bodies strewn across the battlefield—a grim testament to both sides' determination and sacrifice during this intense conflict. This print not only provides us with an extraordinary visual record but also serves as a historical artifact that sheds light on an important chapter in military history. It allows us to reflect upon past struggles while honoring those who fought bravely on both sides.
