This print captures a pivotal moment in history during the Ashanti War of 1873-74. Sir Garnet Wolseley, surrounded by British and native soldiers and bearers, receives crucial news from the front lines in the fierce battle against King Kofi Karikari and his Ashanti forces. The second Ashanti War was fought over control of the coastal town of Elmina on the Gold Coast of Africa, now known as Ghana.
In this image, Sir Wolseley's expression is one of intense focus and determination as he listens to updates that could potentially shift the tides of war. The tension in the air is palpable as both sides fight fiercely for dominance over this strategically important region.
