EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "The Battle of Omdurman, the Opening Charge of the Dervishes against the British Division" transports us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Frank Dadd and now part of a private collection, this print captures the intensity and chaos that unfolded during this pivotal battle. The image showcases the clash between two formidable forces: the British Division and the charging Dervishes. Banners flutter in the wind as battalions engage in fierce combat on Sudanese soil. The topography adds depth to this scene, with rolling hills and vast plains serving as witnesses to this monumental struggle. At its center, we witness an awe-inspiring sight –the opening charge of the Dervishes. With their determination etched on their faces, they surge forward towards their adversaries with unwavering resolve. Meanwhile, British soldiers stand firm within their fortified zeriba formation, ready to defend against this onslaught. This engraving originally appeared in The Graphic on September 24th, 1898 - offering readers a glimpse into one of history's most dramatic battles. It serves as a testament to both bravery and sacrifice exhibited by all those involved.
