EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken circa 1905, we are transported back in time to the picturesque suburb of Craighall in Johannesburg, Transvaal, South Africa. The image showcases the tranquil and idyllic charm of this suburban area, which was still in its infancy during the early 1900s. The photograph captures the essence of a bygone era, with its quaint buildings and tree-lined streets. The image on the right showcases a sturdy wooden bridge, arching gracefully over a babbling brook. The bridge, a testament to the engineering prowess of the time, connects the two sides of the suburb, allowing for seamless travel between them. The buildings in the photograph are a mix of architectural styles, reflecting the diverse population of the area. Some are grand and imposing, with red-tiled roofs and ornate detailing, while others are more modest, with thatched roofs and simple design. The trees, lush and green, provide a stark contrast to the dusty, rural surroundings, adding a touch of the countryside to this suburban landscape. People are visible in the photograph, going about their daily routines. Children can be seen playing in the streets, while adults tend to their gardens or engage in conversation with their neighbors. The scene is one of community and camaraderie, with a strong sense of unity among the residents. Craighall, with its peaceful atmosphere and picturesque surroundings, was a popular choice for those seeking a suburban lifestyle in the early 1900s. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into a time when life was simpler, and the world moved at a slower pace.
