EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Anglo-Boer War, The Ambush Into Which The British Fell While Crossing A Ford In Bushman-Kop" takes us back in time to a significant moment during the Second Boer War. Illustrated by Achille Beltrame, this colour lithograph depicts a crucial event that occurred on Sunday, 29 April 1900. In this intense scene, we witness the British soldiers falling into an ambush as they attempt to cross a ford in Bushman-Kop. The image portrays the devastating defeat suffered by the British Empire's cavalry at the hands of guerilla fighters. Horses and their riders are caught amidst chaos and confusion against a backdrop of rugged mountains. Beltrame's attention to detail brings life to this historical event, showcasing not only the military aspect but also capturing elements of South African culture and wildlife. From racehorses and ponies to shire horses and stallions, various animals can be seen adding depth to the composition. "The Anglo-Boer War, The Ambush Into Which The British Fell While Crossing A Ford In Bushman-Kop" serves as a reminder of both triumphs and losses experienced during colonial conflicts. It encapsulates the bravery and sacrifice displayed by troops from Great Britain while highlighting Southern Africa's role in shaping history.
