EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a critical moment during the Zulu War, an intense military conflict that took place in South Africa. The engraving, created by John Charles Dollman and reproduced for The Graphic on July 12,1879, showcases the relentless pursuit of Commandant Schermbrucker and Ernest Grandier as they close in on their target. The scene unfolds at Zlobane Hill, where tribal warriors known as Zulus are engaged in battle with British forces. Amidst the chaos and danger, Captain Moore finds himself surrounded by enemy soldiers on horseback. In this gripping image, we witness his capture as he is dismounted from his loyal steed. The composition not only highlights the bravery and determination of these individuals but also showcases the diverse range of animals present on the battlefield. From racehorses to ponies and even shire horses, these magnificent creatures add an element of wildness to an already tumultuous scene. As Cetewayo's warriors triumphantly secure their prisoner while maintaining control over their own mounts, one cannot help but be drawn into this dramatic tableau. This photograph print serves as a testament to both the courage displayed by those involved in this historic conflict and the untamed spirit of wildlife amidst war-torn landscapes.
