EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "New Zealanders to the Rescue, saving a Picket of the Yorkshire Regiment near Slingersfontein" transports us back to a significant moment in history. Created by William Small and now part of a private collection, this print showcases an extraordinary act of heroism during the Boer War. The scene unfolds amidst the rugged terrain of South Africa as New Zealand soldiers come to the aid of their comrades from the Yorkshire Regiment. The intensity is palpable as these brave men work together to rescue a picket unit trapped near Slingersfontein. With determination etched on their faces, they embody courage and camaraderie in the face of adversity. Small's meticulous attention to detail brings this historical event vividly to life. Every stroke captures not only the physicality but also the emotional weight carried by these soldiers. Their uniforms bear witness to their allegiance while showcasing their individual stories within this larger narrative. Published in The Graphic on February 24th, 1900, this engraving serves as both documentation and tribute. It immortalizes an instance where nationalities united under one cause - protecting each other against formidable odds. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork today, we are reminded not only of past sacrifices but also our shared humanity that transcends borders and time itself.
