EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the 19th century, specifically to the year 1868, during the British Army's expedition to Abyssinia. Published in 1875 as part of "El Mundo En La Mano" this illustration captures a pivotal moment in history when soldiers were seen marching through treacherous terrains while transporting weapons and supplies. The image showcases the incredible transportation methods employed by the British Army during that time. Amongst them, we see majestic elephants being utilized as beasts of burden, carrying heavy loads on their backs. These magnificent creatures played a crucial role in supporting the troops throughout their journey. As we delve into this snapshot from history, it becomes evident that this expedition was no ordinary military campaign. It was an arduous march filled with challenges and obstacles that tested both man and beast alike. The soldiers depicted here demonstrate unwavering determination as they trudge forward towards their destination. The significance of this photograph lies not only in its depiction of transportation and logistics but also in its portrayal of cultural exchange between Britain and Ethiopia (then known as Abyssinia). This encounter between two nations is beautifully encapsulated within these frames. Ken Welsh's expertly captured image offers us a glimpse into a defining moment for both countries involved. It serves as a reminder of the bravery exhibited by soldiers who ventured far from home to fulfill their duty while showcasing how animals like elephants played an integral role in historical expeditions such as these.
