EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished Field-Marshal Lord Roberts of Kandahar, V. C. &C in all his glory. The image, taken by Russell & Sons in 1900, captures the essence of this renowned British general who played a crucial role in the Second Boer War. Lord Roberts' resolute gaze and commanding presence exude strength and authority. Dressed impeccably in his military uniform, complete with a striking red coat and an impressive array of medals adorning his chest, he epitomizes bravery and valor. Sitting comfortably on a chair with legs crossed, Lord Roberts appears deep in thought as he holds a book - perhaps contemplating strategies or reflecting on past victories. His neatly trimmed mustache adds to his distinguished appearance while hinting at the Victorian era from which he emerged. As one of Britain's most esteemed military leaders, Lord Roberts was honored for his exceptional service by being appointed Commander-in-Chief of the Transvaal Province and High Commissioner for South Eastern Africa during a tumultuous time. This portrait immortalizes him as not only a knight but also as an influential figure who shaped history through his leadership during times of conflict. The photograph is part of "South Africa and the Transvaal War" by Louis Creswicke, published in 1900. It serves as both an artistic representation capturing Lord Roberts' character and as historical documentation that transports us back to this significant period in British military history.
