EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Zulu War, Natal Mounted Police, under Major Dartnell, on their Way to the Front" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century and now part of a private collection, this print showcases the bravery and determination of the Natal Mounted Police during the Anglo-Zulu War. In this scene, we witness Major Dartnell leading his troops towards the frontlines with unwavering resolve. The mounted police officers are seen riding alongside wagons filled with essential supplies for battle. Their steely gazes and poised postures reflect their readiness to confront any challenges that lie ahead. The composition beautifully captures both the military precision and logistical complexity involved in transporting troops during wartime. The careful hitching and coupling of wagons demonstrate meticulous planning as they navigate through rugged terrain towards their destination. Published as an illustration for The Illustrated London News on February 22nd, 1879, this engraving offers a glimpse into a pivotal chapter of South African history. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by these brave men who fought against formidable odds in defense of their homeland. As we admire this historical artwork from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us pay tribute to those who served valiantly during times of conflict while acknowledging our shared responsibility to preserve peace for future generations.
