EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Free State Campaigning" captures a significant moment in history during the Second Boer War. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this print showcases the military administration and activities in South Africa. The image portrays a scene at Sand River Siding, where Boer prisoners are seen waiting outside a hospital. The atmosphere is tense as soldiers stand guard while Prince Francis of Teck and Lord Roberts administer the oath of allegiance to those who surrender. In the background, a table displays goods being bought from a store that has been looted. Major Poore can be seen conversing with Boers inside Kroonstad's Raadzaal (council chamber), highlighting negotiations taking place amidst conflict. This photograph provides insight into the complexities of war and its impact on both sides. The clarity and composition of this historic snapshot demonstrate the skillful artistry of photography during this era. Preserved within a private collection, it offers viewers an opportunity to delve into an important chapter in world history.
