EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Battlefields of Pretoria" takes us back to the year 1901, during the Second Boer War in South Africa. The creator remains unknown, but their personal survey offers a unique perspective on this historical event. The image showcases the strategic military location of Pretoria, with its Victorian-era architecture standing tall amidst a war-torn landscape. It serves as a powerful reminder of the British Empire's colonial presence in South Africa during that time. As we delve into this photograph, we are transported to an era where literature played a crucial role in documenting wars and conflicts. Louis Creswicke's book "South Africa and the Transvaal War, Vol. VI" comes to mind as an invaluable source for understanding this period. The print collector has beautifully captured the essence of these battlefields through his black and white lens, emphasizing both the devastation caused by war and the resilience shown by those involved. It is important to acknowledge that this photo should not be used for commercial purposes; instead, it should be appreciated for its historical significance. Through images like these, we gain insight into past events that have shaped our world today – reminding us of the sacrifices made and lessons learned from conflicts such as the Second Boer War.
