About This Design
Defence of Rorke's Drift Signature Poster
A new "signature" edition of Lady Elizabeth Butler's epic 1880 painting The Defence of Rorke's Drift. The original painting depicts determined defence of the mission station at Rorke's Drift, Natal Colony by a handful of British and colonial troops. Arrayed against them were some 4000 equally determined and courageous Zulu warriors looking to follow up on their crushing defeat of some 1,500 of Queen Victoria's troops at Isandlwana earlier that same day. In this edition, Butler's painting is augmented by photographic portraits of the two senior British officers present - Lt. John Chard of the Royal Engineers and Lt. Gonville Bromhead of the 24th Regiment. Each portrait is flanked by a facsimile of their signatures which were scanned from original examples n the SoftheQ collection. Also, depicted are the helmet plates of the Royal Engineers and the 24th Regiment and examples of the Victoria Cross and the 1877-79 South Africa Medal.

I like the design features on the website. They enable the fitting of a good quality Print to an existing frame.
This Print was of excellent quality. I would buy again.
One small gripe is that the image was not centred horizontally (about 3mm out) so needed trimming. No great hardship and may have been my fault in the setting-up.
Next time, I would choose to set the text below the picture to a smaller font.
Overall - Thank You! Looks good in its frame - Just as expected. I had a very expensive Gallery print of this before. It got damaged - hence the replacement. It compares very well.
