EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Kaffirs getting Remounts started, an Early Morning Scene near Pretoria" transports us back to a bygone era in South Africa. Created by the talented artist John Charlton in 1901, this print captures a moment of bustling activity and cultural exchange. In the early morning light, we see a group of Kaffir men diligently preparing remounts for their daily tasks. The scene is filled with energy as these skilled workers go about their duties with precision and expertise. Their dedication to their work is evident in every movement they make. The setting itself adds to the allure of this image. Near Pretoria, the capital city of South Africa at that time, the landscape stretches out before us - vast and untamed. We can almost feel the crispness of the air and hear the sounds of nature awakening around them. Charlton's attention to detail is remarkable; each figure comes alive on paper through his masterful strokes. This engraving was originally published in The Graphic magazine on December 21st, 1901 - a testament to its historical significance. As we gaze upon this print from Bridgeman Images' private collection today, it serves as a reminder of both our shared history and our appreciation for artistry across cultures. It invites us to reflect on how different communities have contributed to shaping our world throughout time.
