EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "With General French: New Zealanders saving a picket of the Yorkshire Regiment near Slingersfontein on January 15" captures a powerful moment during the Second Boer War. The image, based on a sketch by G. D. Giles, depicts General John French leading a group of New Zealand soldiers as they come to the aid of their comrades from the Yorkshire Regiment. In this intense skirmish scene, British troops are engaged in fierce combat with Boer forces in South Africa. The soldiers are shown aiming their rifles and bayonets at their enemies, highlighting the desperation and determination that defined this conflict. The artist's attention to detail is evident in capturing every aspect of battle - from the military uniforms worn by both sides to the smoke rising from fired guns. This historical artwork serves as a reminder of the bravery and sacrifice exhibited by soldiers on both sides during times of war. It also showcases General French's leadership skills as he leads his men into action, risking his own life for his country. The lithograph reproduction by William Small brings this significant moment in history to life once again, allowing viewers to appreciate its artistic value while reflecting upon the human cost of warfare. This image is part of The Stapleton Collection and remains an important testament to one chapter in our shared global history.
