EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "A Commando of Surrendered Boers looting Stock from the Enemy near Vlaklaagte" offers a glimpse into the tumultuous times of the Boer War in South Africa. Created by J. J. Waugh in 1910, this print showcases a scene that unfolded during one of the most significant conflicts in history. The image depicts a group of surrendered Boers taking advantage of their newfound freedom to loot stock from their former enemies near Vlaklaagte. The artist's attention to detail is evident as he skillfully captures the intensity and chaos surrounding this act of plundering. As we delve deeper into this historical moment, it becomes clear that war often brings out both heroism and desperation within individuals. The composition invites us to reflect on the complex nature of conflict and its impact on those involved. Originally published in The Graphic on July 27th, 1901, this engraving serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made during wartime. It also highlights how art can preserve these important moments for future generations to learn from and appreciate. Bridgeman Images has once again curated an exceptional piece from their collection with this lithograph by J. J. Waugh.
