EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "Attack on a patrol" depicts a dramatic scene from the Boer War. Published in 1901 by Harmsworth Bros Limited, it is part of the renowned collection "After Pretoria: The Guerilla War". The artist behind this powerful image is Frederick Judd Waugh (1861-1940), whose attention to detail and skillful engraving techniques bring this historical moment to life. In the print, we witness an intense clash between two opposing forces amidst the South African landscape. Uniformed troops engage in battle with weapons drawn, their faces filled with determination and resolve. This snapshot captures the essence of conflict as it unfolds on foreign soil. The composition's stark contrast between light and shadow adds depth and intensity to the overall atmosphere. Each stroke of Waugh's hand conveys movement, highlighting both chaos and order within this chaotic encounter. As viewers, we are transported back in time to experience firsthand the hardships faced by soldiers during this tumultuous period in history. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by those who fought for their beliefs. Preserved within private collections today, this lithograph continues to serve as a testament to human resilience and bravery during times of war. Its historical significance remains undeniable, allowing us to reflect upon past events while honoring those who played a role in shaping our world today.
