EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the exterior of Crown Reef Gold Mining Company's Battery in late 19th century South Africa. The image, taken by a talented South African photographer from the 19th century, showcases a significant piece of history from the African continent. The Crown Reef Gold Mining Company's Battery stands tall against the backdrop of an enchanting landscape. Its imposing structure reflects both the grandeur and challenges faced by those involved in gold mining during this era. The intricate details captured in this print offer a glimpse into life at that time, providing valuable insight into the daily workings of such an important industry. This particular print is part of a private collection and was featured as an illustration in "Scenes and Life in Transvaal" published by The Art Photo-Publishing Company around 1890. The gravure printing technique used adds depth and texture to enhance its visual impact. As we gaze upon this historical gem, we are transported back to a time when gold mining played a vital role in shaping South Africa's economy and society. It serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and offers us an opportunity to reflect on how far we have come since then.
