The Battlefield Collection




I have just released a series of three fine art photographs commemorating the Anglo Zulu War battles of Isandlwana and Rorke's Drift. Printed on Archival matte paper, using pigment inks, each signed images is supplied in a custom presentation tube and will make a stunning addition to a private collection or as a centerpiece in a corporate, office or home environment.

Unfortunately a computer monitor cannot display the fine detail and delicate nuances inherent in the actual prints. The collection may be viewed at:-                                     http://www.underbergstudio.co.za/UNSthebattlefields.html

Isandlwana - Then and Now



I was recently given an original Boer war photograph depicting the Natal Field Artillery approaching Isandlwana and, although it was probably taken fifteen to twenty years after the historic Anglo Zulu battle in 1879, it is very interesting. Having visited the area a number of times recently, I compared a colour image of mine taken from a similar viewpoint and what struck me most was the change in vegetation.
