EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful print captures a significant moment in history during the Zulu War at St. Peter's, Bishop Colenso's church in Pietermaritzburg. The figure of John William Colenso, the controversial Bishop of Natal, looms large as he challenges the establishment with his radical theological views and unwavering support for the Zulu tribes.
In a time when British and Boer forces were invading Zulu territories, Bishop Colenso stood firm in his belief that the indigenous people deserved respect and protection against colonial aggression. His advocacy for the rights of the Zulu tribes made him an important figure in shaping the course of history during this tumultuous period.
The image captures not just a physical battle but also a clash of ideologies and values. It serves as a reminder of the complexities and moral dilemmas faced by individuals like Bishop Colenso who dared to challenge authority for what they believed was right.
As we gaze upon this historical snapshot frozen in time, we are reminded of the importance of standing up for justice and equality even in the face of overwhelming opposition. The legacy of Bishop Colenso lives on through this poignant image, inspiring us to question established norms and fight for what is just and humane.
