EDITORS COMMENTS

Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this engraving offers a vivid depiction of the conflict that unfolded during the Ashanti Empire's expansion along the Gold Coast. The image showcases various elements that defined this era. From grinding mills to forts like Christiansborg and Elmina Castle, it highlights the strategic locations where battles were fought. The presence of Fantee soldiers donning traditional dress serves as a reminder of tribal involvement in these conflicts. Amidst scenes of bustling markets and coastal landscapes, we catch glimpses of everyday life on the Gold Coast. Women adorned in vibrant attire go about their daily routines while government houses stand as symbols of colonial power. As our eyes wander across this detailed topography, we are transported to a time when European powers vied for control over resources and territories.
