EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the serene beauty of Golf Links in Bulawayo, Southern Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe), circa 1920. The image transports us back in time to the 1920s, an era of colonial rule and the height of the British imperial presence in Africa. The scene is set against a backdrop of towering trees, their branches reaching out to embrace the clear blue sky. The trees, a characteristic feature of the region, frame the expansive golf course, their leaves casting dappled shadows on the lush, green grass. The course, a testament to the colonial influence, stretches out before us, its undulating terrain a challenge for even the most skilled golfers. The tranquility of the scene is broken only by the sight of a solitary golfer in the distance, his figure small against the vast expanse of the course. He stands poised, his golf club raised, ready to take a swing at the ball that lies before him. The image captures the essence of a bygone era, a time when colonialism and the pursuit of sport went hand in hand. The photograph is a reminder of the rich history of Bulawayo, a city that has seen its fair share of change over the decades. From its early days as a colonial outpost to its present-day status as a vibrant and diverse urban center, Golf Links remains a cherished part of the city's heritage. This image invites us to reflect on the past, while also celebrating the enduring beauty and charm of this iconic golf course.
