EDITORS COMMENTS
Boer families in British prison camp, captured through the lens of a French School artist during the 2nd Boer War in 1901. This poignant print, sourced from Le Petit Journal in Paris, offers a glimpse into the harsh realities faced by African families under British colonial rule. The image portrays a scene of sorrow and resilience as Boer women and children find themselves confined within the confines of a prison camp. Their faces reflect both weariness and determination, their eyes telling stories of loss and longing for freedom. The composition captures not only their physical confinement but also the emotional toll inflicted upon them. This photograph serves as a reminder of the devastating consequences brought about by war and imperialism. It sheds light on an often overlooked aspect of history – that innocent civilians were caught up in conflicts beyond their control. These Boer families became unwilling victims, torn apart from their homes and forced to endure unimaginable hardships. As we contemplate this powerful image, let us remember those who suffered during this turbulent period in South Africa's past. May it serve as a testament to our collective responsibility to learn from history's mistakes and strive for peace and justice.
