EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a pivotal moment in history - the British defeat at Tweebosch during the Boer War on March 7,1902. Lord Paul Methuen, a prominent figure in the conflict, is depicted as he is taken prisoner by Jacobus Herculs de la Rey dit Delarey or Koos de la Rey, a General of the Boers. The intensity of this battle is palpable through the intricate details etched into this print. The artist from the French School skillfully portrays the chaos and turmoil that engulfed both sides on that fateful day. Lord Methuen's expression reveals his shock and resignation as he becomes captive to his adversaries. "Le Petit Parisien" a renowned publication of its time, featured this powerful engraving in 1902. It serves as a testament to their commitment to documenting significant events around the world. This historical artifact now resides in a private collection, preserving its significance for future generations to appreciate. Stefano Bianchetti expertly captured every nuance of this momentous event with great attention to detail. As we gaze upon this image today, it reminds us of the sacrifices made during times of war and offers an opportunity for reflection on our shared human history.
