EDITORS COMMENTS
In this chromolitho print, we are transported back to the Zulu War of 1879, witnessing a moment of extraordinary bravery and sacrifice. The image depicts Lieutenants Melville and Coghill in the midst of a fierce battle, as they valiantly strive to save their regiment's colors from falling into enemy hands. The scene is set on the battlefield at Isandlwana, where British forces faced off against the mighty Zulu warriors. Amidst chaos and carnage, these two courageous lieutenants refuse to let their flag be captured or tarnished. Mounted on horseback, they charge forward with unwavering determination, defying all odds. Their horses gallop through smoke-filled air as bullets whiz past them. The intensity of the confrontation is palpable; it is a clash between two formidable forces locked in mortal combat. Yet amidst this violence and turmoil, Melville and Coghill embody honor and loyalty as they risk everything for their unit's symbol of pride. This powerful artwork by Alphonse Marie de Neuville captures not only the physicality of war but also its emotional toll. It serves as a testament to the indomitable spirit that drives soldiers to protect one another even in moments of great peril. Displayed at London's National Army Museum, this print stands as a reminder of those who fought bravely during this historic conflict – an enduring tribute to Lieutenant Melville and Lieutenant Coghill's selfless act that forever etched their names
