EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white lithograph captures the Langman Hospital nestled within the serene grounds of the Ramblers Club in Bloemfontein. The image, created by Melton Prior after a photograph taken in 1900, showcases the hospital's presence during a tumultuous time - the Second Boer War. The Langman Hospital stands proudly amidst rows of tents, serving as a beacon of hope and healing for both soldiers and civilians alike. Its grandeur is juxtaposed against the ruggedness of military life surrounding it. The scene exudes an air of tranquility despite being situated in a war-torn landscape. The artist's attention to detail brings this historical moment to life. Every stroke etches out intricate patterns on each tent, while shadows play with light across the sprawling grounds. This engraving was originally featured in The Illustrated London News on June 9th, 1900, allowing readers to witness firsthand how medical care played a vital role during times of conflict. As we gaze upon this print from our private collection today, we are transported back to that era when compassion triumphed over chaos. It serves as a reminder that even amidst turmoil and strife, humanity finds solace in places like the Ramblers Club and institutions like the Langman Hospital – symbols of resilience and unwavering dedication to saving lives.
