EDITORS COMMENTS
In this lithograph, we are transported back in time to the era of the Boer War in South Africa. The image depicts Lord Roberts, a prominent figure during this tumultuous period, accompanied by his loyal colonial bodyguard. Lord Roberts stands tall and dignified at the center of the composition, exuding an air of authority and confidence. His presence is further enhanced by his impeccable military uniform which symbolizes his leadership role in battle. Surrounding him are his trusted bodyguards, mounted on powerful horses that exude strength and resilience. The tension is palpable as these soldiers prepare for a confrontation with their adversaries, the Boers. Each soldier's face reveals determination and resolve as they brace themselves for what lies ahead on the battlefield. This historic print not only captures a significant moment in history but also serves as a testament to the bravery and sacrifice displayed by these troops during times of war. It allows us to reflect upon the complexities of colonialism and its impact on nations around the world. Through this engraving, we gain insight into Lord Roberts' leadership style and witness firsthand how he relied on his colonial bodyguard for protection amidst fierce battles against formidable opponents. This artwork serves as a reminder of our shared human history and invites us to contemplate both triumphs and tragedies that have shaped our world today.
