Senafe, Abyssinia, 1868
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating watercolor print by Lieutenant Cornelius Francis James that offers a glimpse into the challenging terrain faced by Lieutenant-General Sir Robert Napier's expeditionary force in their journey to King Theodores capital at Magdala. This picturesque artwork showcases the depot at Senafe during this historic advance. Intriguingly, despite the engineers' efforts in constructing a railway and road partially into the interior of Abyssinia, Napiers men still had to navigate over 400 miles (640 km) of treacherous landscape. James himself served with the Bombay Staff Corps during this arduous expedition. The painting beautifully captures the rugged topography surrounding Senafe, with majestic mountains dominating the backdrop. It provides an insight into both natural features and human presence, as evidenced by the camp and depot depicted in meticulous detail. This historical artwork not only highlights Lieutenant James' artistic talent but also serves as a testament to the determination and resilience of those involved in Napier's mission. It stands as a reminder of their unwavering spirit amidst adversity. Preserved within London's National Army Museum collection, "Senafe, Abyssinia, 1868" transports viewers back to an era when exploration was fraught with challenges yet yielded remarkable achievements. Through this evocative image, we are invited to reflect upon history while appreciating both its beauty and complexity.
