Cetshwayo ka Mpande, King of the Zulu (1826-84) c.1880
-
Photographic portrait of Cetshwayo ka Mpande, King of the Zulu, taken at Oude-Moulen, South Africa: seated, dressed in European clothes and a hat with a tassel. Photographer's blind stamp at bottom left of image.
This photograph was presumably taken when Cetshwayo was in exile following his defeat in the Anglo-Zulu war of July 1879. The King was exiled first to Cape Town and then, in August 1882, to London. -
