EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the esteemed Boer commanders during the tumultuous period of the Boer War in South Africa, 1902. The artistic lens of Underwood & Underwood beautifully portrays Ex-Commandant Generals Christiaan de Wet, Koos de la Rey, and Louis Botha, who played pivotal roles in this historic conflict. Standing tall with a commanding presence is Christiaan de Wet, renowned for leading the Boer forces in the Orange Free State. Alongside him sits Koos de la Rey and Louis Botha, distinguished senior commanders from the South African Republic (Transvaal). Together, these formidable leaders orchestrated a relentless guerrilla campaign against British forces after Pretoria's fall in March 1900. The composition exudes strength and determination as these men embody resilience amidst adversity. Their bearded countenances reflect wisdom gained through years of military experience and political acumen.
