EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print, we are transported back to the year 1889 in South Africa. The photo captures a pivotal moment during the construction of the Laings Nek Tunnel, as workers can be seen travelling on trucks through a train tunnel. The image is filled with an air of anticipation and determination, as these brave men navigate their way through the dark depths of progress. The landscape stretches out before them, showcasing the vastness and untamed beauty of Africa. A male steam engine locomotive stands proudly at the forefront, emanating power and strength. Its billowing clouds of steam create an ethereal atmosphere that adds to the mystique surrounding this historical scene. The composition is expertly framed by N. P. Edwards, who skillfully captures every detail with his camera lens. The contrast between light and shadow creates a dramatic effect, emphasizing both the harsh conditions faced by these workers and their unwavering resolve. This print serves as a reminder of human ingenuity and perseverance in conquering seemingly insurmountable challenges for progress. It transports us back in time to witness firsthand how rail transport played a crucial role in shaping South Africa's history. N. P. Edwards' work immortalizes this significant moment in time, allowing us to reflect upon our past while appreciating how far we have come since then.
