EDITORS COMMENTS
This panoramic sketch by Major North Crealock of the 95th Regiment, depicts the undulating landscape on the Zululand and Natal border, near the site of the recent and historic battle of Rorkes Drift in 1879. The scene captures the rugged beauty of the terrain, with its rolling hills and verdant vegetation, which once served as the backdrop to one of the most significant military engagements in the Anglo-Zulu War. Major Crealock, who was the Assistant Military Secretary at the time, sketched this view during the aftermath of the battle, which took place on January 22, 1879. The battle saw the British, who were vastly outnumbered, successfully defend the mission station at Rorkes Drift against repeated attacks by the Zulu army. The victory came just a few days after the British suffered a devastating defeat at Isandlwana, making Rorkes Drift a crucial turning point in the war. The sketch provides a fascinating glimpse into the setting of this pivotal moment in history, with its panoramic view of the undulating country that stretches out before the viewer. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the tense atmosphere that must have prevailed during the battle, as the British soldiers held their ground against the relentless Zulu onslaught. The sketch is a valuable historical document, offering a unique perspective on the events of the Anglo-Zulu War and the landscape that played such a significant role in the conflict. Its inclusion in the Mary Evans Prints Online collection provides an opportunity for scholars, historians, and anyone interested in military history to explore this important chapter in the annals of history in greater depth.
