EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "A Choice of Evils, from The Leaguer of Ladysmith, 1900" takes us back to a significant moment in history during the Boer War. Created by Captain Clive Dixon, this colour litho artwork showcases his satirical genius and attention to detail. In this scene, we are transported to the besieged town of Ladysmith where soldiers find themselves facing an unexpected dilemma. A puff adder lurks menacingly at the entrance of a hole while a cannon and howlitzer gun point towards it. The juxtaposition between these deadly weapons and the seemingly harmless snake adds an element of irony and dark humor. The artist's choice to depict this particular scenario speaks volumes about the horrors faced by soldiers during wartime. It cleverly symbolizes the difficult choices they must make - whether to confront immediate threats or focus on larger battles raging around them. The vibrant colors used in this lithograph bring life to every intricate detail, capturing our attention with its vividness. This print serves as a reminder that even amidst chaos and conflict, art has the power to provoke thought and provide commentary on society. Preserved in a private collection today, "A Choice of Evils" continues to be an important historical artifact that sheds light on both Captain Clive Dixon's artistic talent and the tumultuous times he lived in.
