The Battle of Isandlwana by Jason Askew. \u003cp\u003e The Battle of Isandlwana on 22 January 1879 was the first major encounter in the Anglo-Zulu War between the British Empire and the Zulu Kingdom. Eleven days after the British commenced their invasion of Zululand in South Africa, a Zulu force of some 10,000-12,000 warriors attacked a portion of the British main column consisting of about 1,800 British, colonial and native troops and perhaps 400 civilians. The Zulus were equipped mainly with the traditional Assegai iron spears and cow-hide shields, but also had a number of muskets and old rifles though they were not formally trained in their use. The British and colonial troops were armed with the state-of-the-art Martini-Henry breech-loading rifle and two 7 pounder artillery pieces as well as a rocket battery. Despite a vast disadvantage in weapons technology, the numerically superior Zulus ultimately overwhelmed the poorly led and badly deployed British, killing over 1,300 troops, including all those out on the forward firing line. The Zulu army suffered around 350 killed, and up to several hundred wounded. The battle was a crushing victory for the Zulus and caused the abandonment of the first British invasion of Zululand. \u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginal painting oil on canvas by Jason Askew. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSize 50 inches x 30 inches (128cm x 76cm)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military Aviation Art Prints","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54134326395213,"sku":null,"price":4800.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/5449\/9149\/files\/2026NEWdhm6068.jpg?v=1781872042"},{"product_id":"the-battle-of-isandhlwana-by-charles-fripp-pc","title":"The Battle of Isandhlwana by Charles Fripp (PC)","description":"P084.

Eleven days after the British commenced their invasion of Zululand in South Africa, a Zulu force of some 10,000-12,000 warriors attacked a portion of the British main column consisting of about 1,800 British, colonial and native troops and perhaps 400 civilians.  The Zulus were equipped mainly with the traditional Assegai iron spears and cow-hide shields, but also had a number of muskets and old rifles though they were not formally trained in their use.  The British and colonial troops were armed with the state-of-the-art Martini-Henry breech-loading rifle and two 7 pounder artillery pieces as well as a rocket battery.  Despite a vast disadvantage in weapons technology, the numerically superior Zulus ultimately overwhelmed the poorly led and badly deployed British, killing over 1,300 troops, including all those out on the forward firing line.  The Zulu army suffered around 350 killed, and up to several hundred wounded.  The battle was a crushing victory for the Zulus and caused the abandonment of the first British invasion of Zululand. \u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLimited edition of 50 artist proofs.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Image size 17 inches x 12 inches (43cm x 31cm)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military Aviation Art Prints","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54135242785101,"sku":null,"price":80.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/5449\/9149\/files\/2026NEWdhm6068.jpg?v=1781872042"},{"product_id":"isandlwana-22nd-january-1879-the-death-of-private-w-griffiths-vc-by-jason-askew-ap","title":"Isandlwana 22nd January 1879 - The Death of Private W Griffiths VC by Jason Askew.

The Battle of Isandlwana by Jason Askew. \u003cp\u003e The Battle of Isandlwana on 22 January 1879 was the first major encounter in the Anglo-Zulu War between the British Empire and the Zulu Kingdom.  Eleven days after the British commenced their invasion of Zululand in South Africa, a Zulu force of some 10,000-12,000 warriors attacked a portion of the British main column consisting of about 1,800 British, colonial and native troops and perhaps 400 civilians.  The Zulus were equipped mainly with the traditional Assegai iron spears and cow-hide shields, but also had a number of muskets and old rifles though they were not formally trained in their use.  The British and colonial troops were armed with the state-of-the-art Martini-Henry breech-loading rifle and two 7 pounder artillery pieces as well as a rocket battery.  Despite a vast disadvantage in weapons technology, the numerically superior Zulus ultimately overwhelmed the poorly led and badly deployed British, killing over 1,300 troops, including all those out on the forward firing line.  The Zulu army suffered around 350 killed, and up to several hundred wounded.  The battle was a crushing victory for the Zulus and caused the abandonment of the first British invasion of Zululand. \u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSigned limited edition of 1150 prints.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Image size 17 inches x 12 inches (43cm x 31cm)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military Aviation Art Prints","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54135968596301,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/5449\/9149\/files\/2026NEWdhm6068.jpg?v=1781872042"},{"product_id":"isandlwana-22nd-january-1879-the-death-of-private-w-griffiths-vc-by-jason-askew-b","title":"Isandlwana 22nd January 1879 - The Death of Private W Griffiths VC by Jason Askew.
