EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene of James Pulleyn's Store in Kroonstad, Orange Free State, South Africa, circa 1901. The town of Kroonstad, situated in the heart of the Free State, was established in 1855 and quickly grew into an important trading hub due to its strategic location at the confluence of the Vaal and Motheo rivers. In this image, we see a lively street filled with various buildings, including James Pulleyn's Store, which stands proudly at the center. The store, with its red roof and whitewashed walls, is a testament to the European influence that dominated the region during the late 1800s. The presence of oxen and carts indicates the importance of agriculture and transportation in the area, as farmers brought their produce to town to sell or trade. People from all walks of life can be seen milling about, dressed in the clothing typical of the era. Men wear hats and long-sleeved shirts, while women don long skirts and bonnets. The presence of a horse-drawn wagon in the background suggests that more affluent residents may have also lived in the area. The Vaal River, which runs alongside the town, can be seen in the distance, providing a vital source of water for both the town and the surrounding farms. The road leading out of town is also visible, indicating the connections Kroonstad had to other parts of the colony and beyond. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the daily life of a South African town during the early 1900s. The scene is one of activity and commerce, reflecting the vibrant and diverse community that thrived in Kroonstad during this period.
