EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Campaigning in Somaliland, Native Women drawing Water from a Well for the Troops" transports us to a moment frozen in time. Created by Frederic de Haenen in 1902, this artwork offers a glimpse into the lives of native women during an era of campaigning and conflict. In this scene, we witness the strength and resilience of these women as they fulfill their crucial role in supporting the troops. Clad in traditional attire that speaks volumes about their culture and heritage, they draw water from a well with grace and determination. Their actions symbolize not only their dedication to sustaining life but also their unwavering support for those fighting on the frontlines. The artist's attention to detail is evident through his intricate engraving technique. Every line etched onto the paper tells a story of struggle and sacrifice. The composition captures both the physical exertion required to draw water from deep within the earth and the quiet camaraderie shared among these women. As we gaze upon this lithograph, we are reminded of how art has always been intertwined with history. It allows us to explore different cultures, traditions, and moments that have shaped our world. Through Haenen's work, we gain insight into an often-overlooked aspect of warfare – how ordinary individuals contribute selflessly behind-the-scenes. This print serves as a testament to humanity's ability to endure even amidst challenging circumstances while shedding light on forgotten narratives that deserve recognition and appreciation.
