EDITORS COMMENTS
All that was left of them: A poignant reminder of the brutal realities of war, this Chromolithograph depicts the remnants of the 17th Lancers after the Battle of Modderfontein on September 17, 1901, during the Second Boer War. The image, painted by renowned British artist Richard Caton Woodville, captures the desolation and sorrow that engulfed the scene as the survivors gathered around the few remaining horses and equipment. The 17th Lancers, also known as the Duke of Cambridge's Own Lancers, had suffered heavy losses during the fierce engagement, with many men and horses killed or wounded. The battle took place near Modderfontein, a small town in the Transvaal region of South Africa, and marked a significant victory for the British forces. The Chromolithograph was published as a supplement to Holly Leaves Christmas Number in 1902, providing a stark contrast to the festive season celebrations taking place back in England. The haunting image serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers during wartime and the enduring impact of conflict on individuals and communities.
