EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking photograph captures the House of Parliament in Pietermaritzburg, South Africa, as it appeared in 1905. Located in the province of KwaZulu-Natal, near the city of Durban, the House of Parliament in Pietermaritzburg served as the legislative branch of government for the Colony of Natal from its completion in 1897 until the Union of South Africa was established in 1910. The architectural design of the building is a blend of Victorian and classical styles, with its imposing dome and intricate detailing reflecting the grandeur and importance of colonial rule. The building's foundation stone was laid in 1896 by Sir Frederick Jack, the Governor of Natal at the time, and it was officially opened in 1897 by the Colonial Secretary, Sir Alfred Milner. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the history of South Africa during the colonial era. The image also serves as a reminder of the rich architectural heritage that can be found throughout the country. Today, the House of Parliament in Pietermaritzburg stands as a symbol of the region's history and cultural significance, attracting visitors from around the world who come to explore the building and learn about its fascinating past.
