EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Boer War themed Christmas cards from 1900, featuring prominent Boer leaders Paul Kruger and Piet Joubert depicted as captive animals. The chromolitho artwork, created by an English School artist of the 20th century, is a part of a private collection belonging to Valerie Jackson Harris. The image portrays the historical context of the Boer War and its impact on British colonialism in South Africa. The cards symbolize the imprisonment and captivity of these influential figures within cages, representing their defeat at the hands of British forces. It serves as a reminder of the power dynamics between Britain and its colonies during this era. The Victorian-era aesthetic adds an intriguing layer to this piece, reflecting early 20th-century sentiments towards imperialism and conquest. Additionally, references to Shakespeare's works like "Henry V" and "As You Like It" are incorporated into the design through quotes, further emphasizing British cultural influence. Overall, this print offers a glimpse into an important chapter in history while highlighting artistic expressions that were used during wartime for propaganda or commemorative purposes.
