EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Marthinus Theunis Steyn, the charismatic and determined President of the Orange Free State in South Africa during the late 1890s and early 1900s. Steyn, born in 1857, led the Orange Free State through a tumultuous period of conflict and political upheaval, serving as its President from 1896 until the republic's eventual surrender in 1902. Steyn's strong leadership and unwavering commitment to the Boer cause during the Second Boer War earned him the respect and admiration of his people. In this image, he is depicted in a confident and regal pose, seated in a wickerwork chair, his top hat resting on the floor beside him. The President's beard, neatly trimmed and well-groomed, frames his stern yet thoughtful expression. He wears a coat and waistcoat, the traditional attire of the Boer leaders of the time. The photograph, taken circa late 1900s, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time of political intrigue and colonial struggle. The Orange Free State, which ceased to exist as an independent Boer republic in 1902, is immortalized through this powerful image of its beloved leader. Marthinus Theunis Steyn remains an iconic figure in South African history, a symbol of resilience and determination in the face of adversity.
