EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1908, showcases the grandeur and elegance of the New Government Buildings, also known as the De Volkstem Building, situated on Pretorius Street in the heart of Pretoria, Transvaal, South Africa. The city's architectural beauty is on full display as the classical, neoclassical design of the buildings' facade dominates the scene. The large, imposing structures, with their intricate balustrades and ornate details, exude an air of authority and sophistication. The sun casts a warm glow over the buildings, illuminating the pavement below where pedestrians can be seen going about their daily business. The people, dressed in the fashion of the early 1900s, add a sense of history and nostalgia to the image. The blinds on the windows are drawn, creating a subtle contrast between the openness of the street and the privacy of the offices within. The New Government Buildings were a symbol of the city's growth and progress during this era. They housed various government offices and were a testament to the architectural prowess of the time. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when Pretoria was a burgeoning city in the Transvaal region of South Africa.
