"Remembering the Battle of Omdurman: A Historic Clash in Sudan" On Friday, September 2, 1898, history witnessed a momentous event known as the Battle of Omdurman. This clash between British and Egyptian troops against the Dervishes of the Soudan took place in Khartoum, Sudan. The battle was captured on a map from Field Marshal Lord Kitchener's memoirs, revealing strategic attacks at different times. One notable image that remains etched in memory is "The Charge of the 21st Lancers at Omdurman. " Painted by R. Caton Woodville, it depicts brave soldiers fearlessly charging into battle with their Kulah Khud helmets gleaming under the sun. Amidst this intense conflict, another scene unfolded – "The looting of Dervish dead. " As victors claimed their spoils after victory had been secured, they encountered remnants of an enemy defeated but not forgotten. In commemoration of those who fell during this historic encounter stands the Lancers Memorial. It serves as a solemn reminder of sacrifice and valor displayed by both sides on that fateful day. Amongst all these elements lies an illustration from 'Cassells History of England' showcasing "The charge of lancers at Omdurman 1898. " This colorful lithograph captures the intensity and bravery exhibited by soldiers charging towards victory amidst chaos and uncertainty. Accompanying them were sounds resonating through time – beats emanating from a Sudanese kettle drum. Its rhythmic cadence echoed across the battlefield, inspiring warriors to push forward despite adversity. Dressed in traditional attire called Jibbahs, Dervishes fought fiercely for their cause against overwhelming odds. Their determination became part of history forever linked to Omdurman's name. "The Avenging Gordon" lithograph portrays how this great battle sought justice for the fallen General Charles Gordon.
