EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to a significant moment in Cape Town's history. It showcases the scene outside Mackays department store on Commissioners Street, precisely on the 4th of February 1955. The image captures a sense of law and order as police officers diligently patrol the area, ensuring the safety and security of both shoppers and shopkeepers. The photograph beautifully encapsulates the essence of life in South Africa during the 1950s. The street is bustling with activity, illuminated by dimly lit street lamps that cast long shadows across the pavement. In this era, department stores like Mackays were at their prime, offering a wide array of products ranging from Murphy radios to Decca records. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, it serves as a reminder of how much has changed since then. The fifties marked an important period for South Africa politically and socially; racial segregation was deeply entrenched within society. Bela Zola's skillful composition allows us to immerse ourselves in this historical moment while simultaneously contemplating its significance today. This print not only documents an ordinary night outside a department store but also offers us an opportunity to reflect on our progress as a society towards equality and justice.
