Samson Kambalu Fourth Plinth Sculpture

Nelson's Column and the sculpture entitled 'Antelope' by Samson Kambalu, recently installed on the 'Fourth Plinth' in Trafalgar Square, on 4th October 2022, in London, England. 'Antelope' is a sculpture that restages a photograph of Baptist preacher and pan-Africanist John Chilembwe and European missionary John Chorley. It represents the opening of Chilmbwe's new church when, wearing a hat in the presence of white people, an act in defiance of colonial rule in Nyasaland, now Malawi. A year after the famous photograph was taken, Chilembwe was killed in an uprising and his church destroyed. (Photo by Richard Baker / In Pictures via Getty Images)
