SARTORIAL LOOKS #34
PORTRAITURE | Cetshwayo kaMpande, Zulu King ca 1970s. Dapper in traditional Zulu garb and suit.
Cetshwayo kaMpande and the Anglo-Zulo War.
Cetshwayo kaMpande was the King of the Zulu Kingdom from 1872 to 1879 and their furious leader during the Anglo-Zulo War. Considered by many historians to be the last King of the Zulu Kingdom (modern day South Africa) Cetshwayo is mostly remembered for his outstanding victory against the British Empire in the Battle of Isandlwana.
The British Empire would ultimately defeat the Zulu Kingdom in the Anglo-Zulo War, but nevertheless Cetshwayo kaMpande is honored for his short-lived triumph against the much more advanced British Empire.
