EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Dragoons surprising a Boer Laager" transports us back to the intense atmosphere of the Second Boer War in South Africa during the late 19th century. The artist, Frank Algenon Stewart (1877-1945), skillfully captures a pivotal moment of surprise and tension in this historical conflict. The scene depicts a group of dragoons stealthily approaching a Boer laager, their presence concealed by the cover of darkness. With their military precision and determination etched on their faces, these brave soldiers are prepared for whatever lies ahead. Their horses stand poised, ready to gallop into action at any given command. The composition exudes an air of anticipation as we witness this covert operation unfold before our eyes. The intricate details within the engraving allow us to immerse ourselves in every aspect of this significant event from over a century ago. Stewart's work was originally published as an illustration for The Illustrated London News on September 1st, 1900. This print serves as both a visual testament to the bravery and resourcefulness displayed by these dragoons during wartime and as a reminder of the sacrifices made by all those involved in conflicts throughout history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded once again that art has the power to transport us through time and connect us with stories that have shaped our world.
