EDITORS COMMENTS

This historical print, created by Frank Dadd and now part of a private collection, offers a glimpse into the military atmosphere during this period. The image showcases an advance guard forming their defense within a camp located in Yeoville, Johannesburg. The soldiers are depicted with unwavering determination as they prepare to face the challenges brought about by the Transvaal Crisis. Their presence exudes strength and resilience against an uncertain backdrop. Intricate details bring life to this engraving, capturing not only the physical surroundings but also the emotions running high among both soldiers and civilians alike. The scene hints at the tension between Uitlanders (foreigners) and local inhabitants amidst political unrest. Dadd's skillful execution transports us back in time, allowing us to witness firsthand these significant moments from history. Through his artistry, we gain insight into the struggles faced by those involved in defending Johannesburg during this critical juncture.
