EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Scenes in Natal" takes us back to the early 20th century, capturing a significant moment in history. The image, taken by an English photographer, showcases the diverse landscapes and events that unfolded during the Second Boer War in South Africa. The photograph transports us to various locations within Natal, revealing a tapestry of scenes. From Signal Hill to Acton Homes, from Fort Napier to Mont Aux Sources, we witness the military presence amidst breathtaking natural beauty. The Legislative Assembly Chamber stands as a symbol of governance and power against the backdrop of this turbulent time. Intriguingly, this photo also sheds light on humanitarian efforts during war. We catch glimpses of volunteer hospitals and field hospitals where brave souls worked tirelessly to heal wounded soldiers. These selfless acts demonstrate humanity's resilience even in times of conflict. Preserved within a private collection, this historical gem offers us a glimpse into an era long gone but not forgotten. Through its lens, we can almost hear echoes of battle cries and feel the tension that once filled these lands. Bridgeman Images has masterfully captured this evocative snapshot from our past through their fine art finder platform. As we gaze upon it today, let us remember those who fought bravely for their beliefs while appreciating the artistic prowess behind this remarkable piece of photography.
