EDITORS COMMENTS
The Battle of Omdurman, 2 September 1898, the First Charge of the Dervishes". This lithograph captures a pivotal moment in history - the intense and dramatic Battle of Omdurman. The image depicts the first charge of the fanatical Dervishes against a formidable military force. With their white robes billowing behind them, these fearless warriors advance towards their enemy with rifles held high. The scene is filled with an air of heroism and courage as the Dervishes struggle to break through the dense ranks of their opponents. The ground is littered with fallen soldiers, evidence of the ferocious nature of this battle. In this annihilating clash, both sides fight fiercely for control over Sudan. Colonel Rhodes can be seen bravely leading his men from a strategic position within a zeriba, while Khalifa's standard waves defiantly in the distance. The engraving beautifully captures every detail - from the heavy smoke-filled air to each individual expression etched on faces contorted by determination and fear. This print serves as a powerful reminder not only of historical events but also showcases Frank Dadd's artistic prowess in capturing such moments with great precision and emotion. It transports us back to that fateful day on September 2nd, 1898 when two forces clashed in an epic struggle for dominance - forever immortalized in this stunning piece.
