EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph, titled "The Square at Abu-Klea, January 17th, 1885" transports us back to a significant moment in history. The image depicts the Battle of Abu Klea, which took place from January 16th to 18th in 1885, during the Gordon Relief Expedition in Sudan. In this scene captured by Stanley L. Wood (1866-1928), we witness a dramatic clash between the British Army's desert column and the formidable Mahdist army. The soldiers stand united in a square formation as they defend themselves against their adversaries. Each soldier is armed with various weapons such as swords, rifles, bayonets, and spears. The intensity of the battle is palpable through Wood's intricate engraving technique. Every detail meticulously etched on paper brings life to this historical event that unfolded over a century ago. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder's private collection - part of The Stapleton Collection - we are reminded of the bravery and sacrifice exhibited by these soldiers who fought valiantly for their cause. It serves as a poignant reminder of our shared human history and the struggles faced by those who came before us. This lithograph not only captures an important moment but also offers us an opportunity to reflect on how far we have come since then while honoring those who played their part in shaping our world today.
