EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the historic Battle of Atbara in Sudan in 1898, depicting the victory of Anglo-Egyptian troops against the dervishes led by Emir Mahmoud. This powerful illustration was featured in "Le Pelerin" on April 24,1898, showcasing the intense violence and chaos that unfolded on the battlefield. The image portrays a scene of death and destruction as soldiers engage in combat amidst a backdrop of North African terrain. The British and Egyptian forces can be seen strategically maneuvering to overcome their opponents, while Emir Mahmoud's dervishes fiercely resist. This depiction sheds light on the complex dynamics at play during this period of colonialism, with England and Egypt asserting their power over Sudan. It also highlights the clash between different religious beliefs, as Muslim soldiers from both sides fight for their respective causes. The artist behind this illustration remains unknown but has skillfully captured the intensity and brutality of war. Stefano Bianchetti's reproduction brings this historical event to life once again, reminding us of the sacrifices made by those involved. This photograph serves as a testament to an important moment in history when European powers sought to expand their influence across Africa. It invites us to reflect on the consequences and legacies left behind by such conflicts.
