EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken during the Mahdist War in Sudan between 1881 and 1889, offers a striking view of the town of Massowah. The image showcases a group of men navigating a causeway, with some diving into the water to cool off and others carrying heavy loads on their backs. The lantern in the foreground suggests that this scene was captured during the early hours of the morning or late in the evening, adding an intriguing element to the image. The Mahdist War, also known as the Sudanese Muslim Revolt or the Mahdist Uprising, was a major armed conflict that took place in Sudan against the Anglo-Egyptian rule. The Mahdist movement, led by Muhammad Ahmad ibn Abd Allah, gained momentum in the late 19th century, and the war lasted for nearly a decade. The conflict resulted in significant loss of life and destruction, and marked the end of the Ottoman rule in Sudan. The photograph provides a glimpse into the daily life of the people during the war, showcasing their resilience and resourcefulness in the face of adversity. The men in the image are seen working together to cross the causeway, some carrying large loads on their backs, while others take a break to cool off in the water. The scene is a poignant reminder of the challenges faced by the people of Sudan during this tumultuous period in their history. The photograph is part of the Boswell Collection, which is housed at Mary Evans Picture Library and offers a rich visual record of historical events and social life from around the world. This image, in particular, provides a unique perspective on the Mahdist War and the people of Sudan during this time.
