Old Tactics versus New (litho)
EDITORS COMMENTS
captures a pivotal moment in military history, showcasing the clash between traditional methods and modern warfare. This print, created by George Derville Rowlandson in 1900, depicts the evolving strategies employed during the Second Boer War. Set against the backdrop of Crystal Palace, this scene portrays mounted infantry and cavalry engaged in combat. The image highlights two distinct approaches to battle: old tactics represented by soldiers standing closely together in a column formation and new tactics demonstrated by troops advancing with open order cover. The artist skillfully illustrates the advantages and disadvantages of each method. While the tightly packed company exposes themselves to enemy fire, their counterparts utilizing open order effectively protect themselves behind sandbags. The intensity of conflict is palpable as bodies are shelled amidst smoke-filled chaos. Rowlandson's black-and-white engraving transports us back to the 19th century when armies were grappling with how best to adapt to changing technologies and warfare techniques. It serves as a reminder that progress often comes at a cost; however, it also showcases humanity's ability to learn from past mistakes and evolve for future conflicts. This thought-provoking artwork from Bridgeman Images invites viewers into an era where military strategy was undergoing significant transformation. As we examine "Old Tactics versus New (litho)" we are reminded of our own capacity for adaptation and innovation in times of adversity.
