EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "After the Zulu War, Windsor Castle, 9 December 1879" captures a moment of honor and recognition. The image depicts Her Majesty Queen Victoria decorating officers and men who distinguished themselves during the campaign. Created by artist Durand Godefroy in the 19th century, this print offers a glimpse into a significant historical event. The scene is set at Windsor Castle, where soldiers from various regiments gather eagerly to receive their well-deserved accolades. Among them are members of the 13th Light Infantry, Frontier Light Horse, Royal Engineers, and many others who bravely fought in the Zulu War. Their uniforms proudly display medals and honors earned through acts of valor on the battlefield. Queen Victoria herself stands tall amidst her decorated subjects, bestowing upon them their hard-earned awards with grace and dignity. Princess Beatrice can also be seen observing this solemn ceremony alongside other notable figures such as Lieutenant Colonel W Knox Leet and Sir H Ponsonby. The atmosphere is one of anticipation mixed with gratitude as these brave men wait patiently for their turn to approach Her Majesty. Each face tells its own story - tales of courage in battle and sacrifice for country. Through this engraving's intricate details and skilled artistry, we are transported back to that historic day in December 1879 when heroes were honored within the grand halls of Windsor Castle. It serves as a testament to bravery, loyalty, and devotion to duty that resonates even today.
