EDITORS COMMENTS
The Fall of Dongola: A Glimpse into the Sudanese Battlefield". This black and white lithograph, titled "The Fall of Dongola" takes us back to a significant moment in history. The image showcases the Egyptian forces as they make a remarkable discovery along the riverbanks of Sudan. In this scene, military remnants and correspondents witness the breathtaking sunrise while standing on the front line. As we delve deeper into this historical event, we see soldiers from the North Staffordshire Regiment advancing towards their destination - nearing Major Mortimer's position. The Soudan campaign unfolds before our eyes, with dervishes defending their territory against Ibrahim Pasha's brigade column. Amidst all this chaos, there is an overwhelming sense of relief and joy depicted in the lithograph. Tommy Atkins and his comrades cheer for their happy deliverance on September 23rd after overcoming numerous challenges during their final march. The artwork beautifully captures not only the bravery and determination of these soldiers but also highlights key locations such as Fort Kerma and Hafir that played crucial roles in Hicks Pasha's army. This engraving serves as a testament to Frank Dadd's exceptional talent in bringing historical events to life through art. It allows us to reflect upon a significant chapter in Egypt-Sudan relations while appreciating the courage displayed by those involved in "The Fall of Dongola.
