EDITORS COMMENTS
The Attempt to Rescue Gordon, Sir Charles Wilson, in the Steamers "Teloweihah" and "Bordein" attempting to run the Gauntlet to Khartoum (engraving) captures a dramatic moment in history. In this powerful image by Frederic Villiers, we witness the brave men who risked their lives in an audacious mission. The scene unfolds on the treacherous waters of Sudan's Blue Nile and White Nile rivers. The steamships "Teloweihah" and "Bordein" manned by determined soldiers from the Royal Sussex regiment, navigate through enemy fire as they make their way towards Khartoum. The rebels' brass guns unleash a barrage of bullets from hidden trenches while sharpshooters take aim at these courageous vessels. Amidst the chaos, crowds gather on the island of Tuti, anxiously watching this daring attempt to rescue General Gordon. The government house stands tall in defiance against Omdurman's skyline as bushes sway with anticipation along its shores. Sir Charles Wilson leads this perilous expedition with unwavering determination. His leadership inspires his comrades as they press forward despite overwhelming odds. Their objective: to reach Khartoum and save Gordon from capture or worse. Villiers' masterful engraving encapsulates both danger and heroism within its intricate details. This historic moment serves as a testament to human resilience and sacrifice for a noble cause.
