EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "On the March to Kumassi: A Halt for Dinner, 1902" takes us back in time to the Anglo-Ashanti Wars in Ghana during the late 19th century. The image captures a moment of respite amidst the turmoil of war as soldiers gather outdoors for a much-needed dinner break. The scene is filled with men dressed in military uniforms, their weary faces reflecting both determination and exhaustion. They sit on makeshift benches or directly on the ground, enjoying their meal together. The atmosphere is one of camaraderie and solidarity as they find solace in each other's company during this challenging campaign. The photographer skillfully portrays the essence of soldier life through this monochrome composition. Every detail tells a story - from the worn-out expressions to the direct gazes that reveal strength and resilience. This historical photograph not only documents an important chapter in Ghana's history but also serves as a reminder of human endurance and sacrifice during times of conflict. It invites viewers to reflect upon the hardships faced by these brave individuals who fought for their country's freedom. Preserved through time, this print offers us a glimpse into an era long gone while honoring those who served with unwavering dedication.
