EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Guards Brigade on the march to Kroonstadt, South Africa" during the Boer War in 1900. The artist behind this stunning piece is Underwood & Underwood, who expertly captured the essence of this historical moment. The image has been colorized from its original black and white format, bringing a new level of vibrancy and life to the scene. In this portrait-style photograph, a group of British soldiers can be seen standing tall with their weapons at hand. Clad in military uniforms, these brave men exude strength and determination as they prepare for battle amidst the conflict-ridden landscape of South Africa's veldt. Each soldier holds a rifle firmly, symbolizing their commitment to defending their nation. This artwork not only represents an important chapter in British history but also reflects the broader themes of colonialism and warfare prevalent during the Victorian era. It serves as a reminder of Britain's imperial ambitions and its involvement in various conflicts around the world. The meticulous attention to detail showcased in this print allows viewers to immerse themselves in the atmosphere of that time period. Through stereoscopic photography techniques employed by Underwood & Underwood, depth is added to create a three-dimensional effect when viewed through a stereoscope card. Overall, this print offers us a glimpse into an intense moment during one of history's most significant wars –the Boer War– while honoring those who served bravely within Britain's Guards Brigade.
