EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grandeur and majesty of St Mary's Cathedral in Salisbury, Rhodesia (now Harare, Zimbabwe), as it stood in the early 1910s. The Anglican Cathedral Church of St Mary and All Saints, located on Second Street, was a prominent landmark of the colonial city. With construction beginning in 1898, the cathedral took over a decade to complete, and was finally finished with a square tower in 1912. The red brick walls and red-tiled roof of the cathedral stand out against the blue sky, while the large, white cross atop the tower reaches towards the heavens. The square tower, with its intricate details and ornate clock face, adds an air of sophistication and importance to the already impressive structure. The photograph also showcases the bustling activity on the streets of Salisbury, with people going about their daily business. The presence of the cathedral, a symbol of European colonialism and Christianity, serves as a reminder of the cultural and historical significance of the time. The Cathedral of St Mary and All Saints remains an important architectural and spiritual landmark in Zimbabwe, attracting visitors from all over the world. Its rich history and beautiful design continue to inspire awe and admiration, making it a must-see destination for anyone visiting Harare.
