EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of arrival for Soldiers of the Royal Horse Artillery (RHA) as they enter the town of Rustenburg, in the North-West Province of South Africa, in 1910. The RHA, a renowned and historic regiment of the British Army, is seen here in full regalia, with horses and riders poised and ready for action. The soldiers, dressed in their distinctive red coats and bearskins, make their way down the tree-lined street, surrounded by the colonial-era buildings that characterize the town. Rustenburg, the administrative capital of the North-West Province, was a significant military outpost during the early 20th century. The British had taken control of the region following the Second Boer War, which ended in 1902. The arrival of the RHA marked the continued presence of British colonial rule in the area. The image provides a glimpse into the past, offering a sense of the grandeur and pomp of the British colonial military machine. The soldiers, with their horses and transport, make their way through the town, their presence both imposing and reassuring. The trees lining the streets add a touch of greenery and tranquility to the scene, contrasting with the military precision and discipline on display. This photograph is a poignant reminder of a bygone era, one marked by colonialism and the expansion of European powers across the African continent. It offers a glimpse into the history of Rustenburg and the North-West Province, and the role that the British military played in shaping the region during the early 1900s.
