EDITORS COMMENTS
This historical print captures the arrival of the 23rd Royal Welsh Fusiliers at Portsmouth from the Ashanti expedition during the second Ashanti War fought between 1873-74. The conflict was a fierce battle for control over Elmina, a coastal town on the West Coast of Africa, also known as the Gold Coast. King Kofi Karikari, ruler of the Ashanti people, and British forces were both determined to secure this strategically important area.
In this image, we see British forces returning home after their intense campaign against King Kofi Karikari's army. The soldiers appear weary but triumphant as they disembark from their ship in Portsmouth. Their uniforms are worn and dusty from battle, yet they stand tall with pride knowing that they have played a crucial role in securing victory for their nation.
The significance of this moment is not lost on those witnessing the arrival of these brave men. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made in pursuit of power and control over valuable territories. This print is a poignant reminder of a chapter in history where nations clashed over land and resources, leaving behind a legacy that continues to shape our world today.
