EDITORS COMMENTS
In the heart of the late 19th century's scramble for African colonies, this satirical cartoon by T. Reed, published in the renowned British magazine Punch on September 24, 1898, humorously captures the tensions between France and Britain during the Fashoda Incident. The scene depicts a group of Frenchmen, led by Major Jean-Baptiste Marchand, attempting to invade the Sudan with an assortment of outdated and comically inadequate tools. In stark contrast, Major Horatio Kitchener of the British Army stands tall and confident, leading a well-equipped and disciplined expedition. The Fashoda Incident, also known as the Fashoda Crisis, was a critical moment in the competition between European powers for territorial control in Africa. In August 1898, Marchand's French force arrived at Fashoda, a strategic Sudanese town, just as Kitchener's British troops were approaching. The situation escalated into a diplomatic crisis, with both sides threatening military action. Ultimately, France backed down, and the British gained control of the Sudan. This cartoon, titled "How Some People Invade the Soudan," highlights the perceived disparity between the French and British military capabilities, adding to the satirical tone. The image is held in the Décorative Arts Library (Bibliothèque des Arts Décoratifs) in Paris, a testament to its historical significance.
