EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Durban, Natal in the year 1901. The image was captured by Wilson, a skilled photographer of that era. Durban, located in the Colony of Natal, was under British rule after being annexed from the Boer Republic of Natalia in 1843. The photograph showcases a vast expanse of farmland stretching as far as the eye can see. The elevated view allows us to appreciate the beauty and serenity of this South African landscape. It is reminiscent of a Victorian countryside vista with its rolling fields and peaceful ambiance. This image holds historical significance as it belongs to "South Africa and the Transvaal War, Vol. VI" by Louis Creswicke, published in 1901 by T. C. & E. C Jack in Edinburgh. It offers a glimpse into life during the Second Boer War (1899-1902), which played a crucial role in shaping South Africa's history. As we admire this remarkable piece of artistry, we are reminded of Britain's colonial presence during that time period and their influence on this region. This print serves as a window into an important chapter not only for Durban but also for South Africa as a whole.
