EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a significant moment in history - the Coomassie, Ashanti War in Africa during 1900. The image showcases Kumasi, a town located in the Gold Coast (now known as Ghana), which holds great historical importance as it was the first African country to gain independence. During the Ashanti Campaign, the local Ashanti people fiercely resisted British imperial ambitions on their land. This resistance posed a considerable challenge for Britain; however, they eventually succeeded in suppressing the Ashanti rebellion by 1900. The photograph is an engraving from "The Life and Times of Queen Victoria" by Robert Wilson, Volume IV. It offers us a glimpse into this tumultuous period of colonialism and imperialism that characterized much of Africa's history during that time. In monochrome black and white, this print evokes a sense of nostalgia and allows us to appreciate both the landscape and architectural elements of Kumasi at that time. The intricate details captured within this image provide valuable insights into Victorian-era Africa. As we reflect upon this historical moment through this remarkable photograph, we are reminded of both the resilience displayed by indigenous peoples against foreign powers and their eventual triumphs towards self-determination.
