EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "The Rising in Rhodesia, Mounted Infantry attacking a Kraal in the Selundi Range" takes us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Charles Edwin Fripp in 1896, this print captures the intensity and bravery of the military forces as they engage in combat. Set against the backdrop of the rugged Selundi Range in Zimbabwe (formerly known as Rhodesia), we witness mounted infantry soldiers fearlessly charging towards a kraal - a traditional African village enclosed by wooden fences. The artist skillfully portrays the chaos and action of battle with intricate details that bring this historical event to life. "The Rising in Rhodesia" refers to an uprising or rebellion that took place during this period. The image showcases not only the military might but also highlights cultural aspects through its depiction of a kraal. It serves as a reminder of how conflicts often intersect with local traditions and customs. Originally published as an illustration for The Graphic on November 7th, 1896, this engraving offers viewers an opportunity to delve into history and gain insight into colonial Africa's tumultuous past. Preserved within private collections today, it continues to captivate audiences with its powerful portrayal of courage amidst conflict. Bridgeman Images presents this remarkable piece from their Look and Learn / Illustrated Papers Collection, allowing art enthusiasts worldwide to appreciate both its artistic merit and historical significance.
