EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph, titled "Mafeking, the Pattern of Stubborn Defence" transports us back to a significant moment in history. Created by Joseph Holland Tringham in 1900, this print captures the essence of Mafeking's unwavering resistance during a time of turmoil. The scene unfolds early in the morning as the sun casts its gentle glow over the native quarter. The river flows peacefully nearby, reflecting the tribal architecture that stands proudly amidst adversity. In this intricate pattern of buildings and streets, we witness both resilience and unity. The railway tracks serve as a reminder of Mafeking's strategic location and its importance for trade and communication. As we explore further into this image, we encounter bustling markets where locals gather to exchange goods and stories with friends from near and far. At the heart of it all lies Mafeking's club – a symbol of camaraderie among those who defended their home against all odds. The Baralongs, Molopo people, Matsatse tribe, and others united under one purpose: protecting their land from external forces. Intricately engraved details bring life to every corner of this print; each stroke tells a story that resonates with our admiration for these brave defenders. As we gaze upon this artwork from Bridgeman Images' collection, let us remember Queen Victoria's words: "Mafeking has shown an example which will never be forgotten. "
