EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "Crocodile River, Transvaal" transports us back to the 19th century in South Africa. Taken by an English photographer, this print is a part of a private collection and showcases the mesmerizing beauty of the Crocodile River. The image captures the river at a point where it has been crossed by heavy rains. The abundance of water is evident as it flows vigorously through the frame. This stunning snapshot serves as a reminder of the power and force that nature possesses. The Crocodile River holds significant importance in South African history, especially during times when rainfall was scarce. It symbolizes resilience and adaptability as it continues to nourish its surroundings even in challenging conditions. Displayed originally in Dennis Edwards' book "Picturesque South Africa" around 1895, this photograph offers viewers a glimpse into an era long gone but not forgotten. Its timeless appeal lies in its ability to transport us to another time and place. With its impeccable composition and attention to detail, this photograph stands as a testament to the artistry of early photography. It reminds us of how far we have come technologically while also appreciating the skill required for capturing such breathtaking moments on film. Through this print from Bridgeman Images' collection, we can appreciate both the natural wonders of South Africa's landscapes and the artistic vision behind documenting them through photography.
