EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Mr Besters Poultry, from The Leaguer of Ladysmith, 1900" takes us back to a significant moment in history during the Boer War. Captured through a colour lithograph by Captain Clive Dixon, this artwork showcases the chaotic scene of raiding and confiscating chickens on Mr Bester's farm. The image transports us to an era where tensions ran high and resources were scarce. In this cartoon-like depiction, we witness soldiers on horseback storming the farm as they seize poultry amidst the chaos. The artist skillfully captures the intensity of the raid with vibrant colors that bring life to every detail. Beyond its historical significance, this artwork also highlights our complex relationship with animals and nature. It reminds us of how humans have long relied on livestock for sustenance while simultaneously disrupting their peaceful existence. The juxtaposition between wild horses galloping alongside domesticated fowl creates a striking visual contrast that invites contemplation about humanity's impact on wildlife. As we gaze upon this piece, we are reminded not only of its artistic merit but also of its ability to transport us into a specific time and place. Through vivid imagery and meticulous attention to detail, Captain Clive Dixon has immortalized an important chapter in history within this remarkable lithograph.
