EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print that takes us back to the turbulent times of colonialism in the West Indies. The image, created by J Taylor and engraved by Richard Corbould, depicts a fierce battle scene at Mont Fortune, a fort on Saint Lucia. In this powerful engraving from the early 19th century, we witness British soldiers engaging in intense combat with French forces amidst the backdrop of an imposing fortification. The artist skillfully captures the chaos and violence of war as men brandish swords and fire guns while clouds of smoke engulf the scene. Morne Fortune's historical significance is evident as it changed hands multiple times between Britain and France during this period. This print serves as a reminder of the strategic importance placed on these islands during colonial times. The monochrome aesthetic adds to its dramatic impact, emphasizing both the bravery and brutality experienced by those involved in such conflicts. It transports us back to an era when nations fought for dominance over territories like Saint Lucia within the Lesser Antilles. "The Attack of Morne Fortune" invites viewers to reflect upon not only the military strategies employed but also on how these events shaped local communities' lives. It stands as a testament to human resilience amidst conflict and offers valuable insights into our shared history in this part of the world.
