EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "In memory of the fallen" by Samuel Begg takes us back in time to the era of the Boer War. The image showcases a solemn moment as British troops pay their respects to their fallen comrades. The composition is striking, with soldiers standing tall in uniformed rows outside a grand cathedral in Canterbury, England. Their faces are filled with reverence and sorrow, reflecting the weight of loss they have experienced on the battlefield. Each soldier holds his rifle firmly against his chest while saluting, creating a powerful visual tribute. Begg's attention to detail is evident in this engraving from 1910. Every line etched into the print tells a story of sacrifice and honor. The artist skillfully captures not only the physical appearance but also the emotional depth of these brave men who fought for their country. "In memory of the fallen" serves as a poignant reminder of those who gave their lives during times of conflict and war. It invites viewers to reflect upon our shared history and appreciate the courage displayed by these soldiers. As we gaze at this historical snapshot preserved through Bridgeman Images' collection, we are reminded that it is our duty to remember and honor those who made ultimate sacrifices for freedom and peace.
