EDITORS COMMENTS
. This lithograph captures a dramatic moment during the conflict in the Niger Country. The scene depicts British forces led by Lieutenant Colonel Pilcher as they launch a surprise attack on the Emir of Lapaies War Camp. The print showcases the chaos and intensity of battle, with cavalrymen charging forward and rockets exploding in mid-air. The clash between British troops and local forces was part of Great Britain's efforts to subdue resistance in Nigeria and establish control over strategic regions. In this particular skirmish, Colonel Lugard played a crucial role in leading his men against the enemy camp. The image highlights not only the military prowess of both sides but also their determination to protect their respective interests. It offers viewers a glimpse into an important chapter in history when European powers sought to expand their influence across Africa. Through this detailed engraving, we witness soldiers from different backgrounds confronting each other on African soil. It serves as a reminder of how conflicts shaped nations and influenced global politics during this era. This print is part of an extensive collection that sheds light on significant events from around the world. Its historical value lies not only in its artistic representation but also in its ability to transport us back to a time when empires clashed for supremacy.
