EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "A View of the Old Mountain, from Wynberg" transports viewers back to 19th century South Africa. Taken by an English photographer, this print captures the essence of the picturesque landscape that enchanted travellers during that era. The focal point of the image is undoubtedly Table Mountain, proudly standing in all its grandeur. Its variety and picturesqueness are affirmed as it dominates the scenery with its majestic presence. As one gazes at this old mountain, they can't help but marvel at its beauty and possibly consider it one of the grandest sights in the southern hemisphere. The photo invites us to imagine ourselves among those early adventurers who journeyed through Cape Town and explored the Cape Peninsula. It evokes a sense of wanderlust as we envision ourselves travelling through Mowbray and Wynberg, taking in every breathtaking view along our path. As we observe this timeless piece of art, we are reminded of how photography has allowed us to capture these moments forever. This particular print serves as a testament to both the skillful eye behind the lens and our innate desire to document our travels for future generations. In conclusion, this remarkable photograph encapsulates not only a specific time period but also embodies the spirit of exploration and appreciation for nature's wonders. It serves as a visual reminder that even though time may pass, there will always be something grander waiting for us just beyond our reach.
