EDITORS COMMENTS
The photograph titled "Return of the Bristol Engineers from South Africa, the Contingent at the Royal Hotel, Bristol" captures a significant moment in history. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this print showcases a proud contingent of soldiers from the 2nd Gloucestershire Regiment returning home after their service in South Africa. In this poignant image, we see Captain Sinnott leading his men as they gather outside the grand Royal Hotel in Bristol. The soldiers stand tall and united, wearing their military uniforms with pride. Behind them, citizens line the streets to welcome these brave heroes back to their homeland. This photograph was originally published as an illustration for The Illustrated London News on December 8th, 1900. It serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by these dedicated individuals who fought for their country overseas. Preserved within a private collection and now available through Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, this piece of photography allows us to glimpse into history and reflect upon moments that shaped our nation's past. It is a testament to both the skill of the unknown English photographer who captured it and to those valiant men who returned home after serving their duty abroad.
