Kenya Offices Treatment Kisumu


EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Kisumu Hospital offices in East Africa during the tumultuous year of 1918, towards the end of the First World War. The image offers a glimpse into the wartime medical infrastructure that supported the African population and British troops stationed in the region. The Kisumu Hospital, located in present-day Kenya, was a vital institution in providing medical care and treatment during this period. The building depicted in the photograph, with its grandiose facade and imposing presence, served as the administrative hub for the hospital. The architectural design, with its red-tiled roof and tall arched windows, exudes an air of authority and resilience. The First World War brought about unprecedented challenges to the African continent, with the conflict leading to the spread of diseases such as malaria, smallpox, and typhoid fever. The hospital played a crucial role in addressing these health concerns, treating both European soldiers and the local African population. The photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the historical significance of the Kisumu Hospital during the 1910s. It underscores the importance of medical care and infrastructure, particularly during times of conflict, and the role that institutions like the Kisumu Hospital played in shaping the course of history. This image, part of The On Call in Africa Collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a unique perspective into the past and provides valuable insights into the wartime experiences of East Africa during the First World War.
