EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Cetewayo receiving Visitors in the Castle, Cape Town" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image depicts Cetewayo, the Zulu king, graciously welcoming visitors within the walls of a castle complex. The scene is set during the Anglo-Zulu War and offers a glimpse into an intriguing cultural exchange. The composition showcases Cetewayo's regal presence as he stands tall amidst his tribal dwelling. His royal attire exudes power and authority while reflecting his rich heritage. Surrounding him are distinguished guests who have come to pay their respects and engage in diplomatic discussions. The castle itself adds an air of enchantment to the scene. With its fairy tale-like appearance, it serves as both a symbol of strength and refuge for Cetewayo and his people. Its grandeur contrasts with the simplicity of traditional Zulu dwellings nearby, highlighting the meeting point between two worlds. This print not only captures a historical event but also invites us to reflect on themes such as royalty, hospitality, and cultural exchange. It reminds us that even in times of conflict or war, there is room for diplomacy and understanding among different cultures. Displayed proudly in this private collection, this engraving by Frank Dadd allows us to delve into history while appreciating its artistic beauty.
