EDITORS COMMENTS
The Honourable Misses Roberts in Bloemfontein, Lord Roberts and his Daughters watching the Departure of Troops to join General Pole-Carew (litho) captures a poignant moment during the Second Boer War. In this lithograph by Ralph Cleaver, we witness the daughters of Lord Roberts, the Honourable Misses Roberts, standing alongside their father as they bid farewell to troops departing to join General Pole-Carew. The image showcases a significant historical event that took place in Bloemfontein. The departure of these brave soldiers symbolizes their commitment and sacrifice for their country. As Colonel Neville Chamberlain leads the troops with determination, Frederick Roberts, Lord Robert's aide-de-camp and son, stands tall among them. Lord Roberts himself watches solemnly as his daughters stand beside him. Their expressions reveal a mix of pride and concern for those embarking on this perilous journey. This scene highlights not only the bravery of these soldiers but also emphasizes the impact war has on families left behind. Cleaver's skillful engraving brings depth and emotion to this historical moment captured for The Illustrated London News in 1900. Through this print, we are transported back in time to witness an important chapter in South Africa's history during its struggle for independence.
