Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print offers a glimpse into an event that unfolded in South Africa. The image showcases a rugged and dramatic landscape, with the Donga taking center stage. It was within these very surroundings that Prince Louis Napoleon met his fate. The topography is beautifully depicted, capturing both the grandeur and treacherous nature of the terrain.
