The Triumph of the Cape Field Artillery - A Historic Return to Cape Town
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this print captured by Paul Thompson, we witness a momentous occasion in Cape Town's history. The image showcases the proud members of the Cape Field Artillery (CFA) as they march triumphantly along Adderley Street in 1915. Having just returned from their successful mission in German South West Africa, these brave soldiers are en route to City Hall, where they will be honored by the Mayor for their remarkable achievement. The photograph beautifully captures the essence of this historic event. As the CFA marches with precision and determination, their rifles held high, one cannot help but feel a sense of admiration for these courageous men. The Union Jack proudly flutters above them, symbolizing British control over the former German colony. Amidst this display of military might and patriotism, there is also a heartwarming touch added to the scene. A child can be seen riding her bicycle alongside these gallant soldiers while women watch from a nearby shop window, all united in celebrating this significant moment. Paul Thompson's skillful composition not only documents an important chapter in South African military history but also evokes emotions of pride and gratitude towards those who fought bravely for their country. This striking print serves as a powerful reminder of our shared heritage and pays homage to those who have dedicated themselves to preserving freedom and peace.
