The First Wash for Five Days, a Luxury at Ladysmith
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this lithograph by Frederic de Haenen, we are transported back to the tumultuous times of the Boer War in South Africa. The image captures a poignant moment of respite amidst the chaos and hardships faced by soldiers of the 2nd Gordon Highlanders stationed in Ladysmith. The weary soldiers, covered in dirt and grime from days without proper washing facilities, find solace in this rare luxury. Their faces reveal a mix of exhaustion and relief as they eagerly gather around makeshift basins filled with water. With clothes rolled up and sleeves pushed back, they prepare themselves for a long-awaited cleanse. Haenen's attention to detail is evident as he masterfully depicts each soldier's expression and body language. From their worn-out uniforms to their unkempt hair, every aspect conveys the harsh reality of war while simultaneously capturing their determination to savor this simple pleasure. This engraving was originally created as an illustration for The Graphic on November 25th, 1899. It serves as a powerful reminder that even amidst conflict and adversity, humanity finds ways to appreciate moments of basic comfort. As we gaze upon this print today, it allows us to reflect on the sacrifices made by those who fought bravely during this historic period.
