EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures a significant moment in the Transvaal War, showcasing the brave defenders of Natal. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print offers a glimpse into a pivotal time in South African history. The image portrays soldiers from various military units gathered for kit inspection and marching order. The scene is filled with activity as troops from the Natal Carbineers, Army Service Corps, Maxim Gun Detachment, 2nd Battalion Royal Dublin Fusiliers, 7th Hussars, West Riding Regiment, 9th Lancers and more come together to prepare for battle. Intriguingly detailed are corporals examining arms while troopers stand at attention. This snapshot showcases their dedication to duty and readiness for combat during the Second Boer War. Located at Fort Napier near Pietermaritzburg in Natal province, this photograph holds historical significance as it was featured in The Illustrated London News on November 4th, 1899. It serves as a testament to the bravery and resilience of those who fought valiantly during this conflict.
