EDITORS COMMENTS
View from Nairobi Hill, Nairobi, Kenya, East Africa (circa 1910s) This evocative photograph captures the breathtaking panorama of Nairobi, the capital city of Kenya, as it appeared in the early 1910s during the colonial era. The image, taken from Nairobi Hill, offers a unique perspective of the city's development during this period of British rule in East Africa. The photograph showcases the vast expanse of lush green grasslands that surrounded the city, providing a stark contrast to the large, imposing buildings that dominate the foreground. The architectural style of the structures is distinctly colonial, with their red-tiled roofs, whitewashed walls, and tall chimneys, reflecting the influence of European design. The city of Nairobi, established in 1899, was a hub of activity during the colonial period, serving as the administrative center of British East Africa. The photograph captures the bustling nature of the city, with the smoke rising from the chimneys of the buildings indicating the industrial activity taking place. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the natural beauty of Kenya, with the nearby hills and trees visible in the distance. The image serves as a reminder of the rich history and cultural diversity of Kenya, and the complex relationship between colonialism and the African continent. This photograph, with its timeless quality and historical significance, offers a unique perspective of Nairobi during the colonial era, and is a valuable addition to any collection of African history or photography.
