EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Jesss Cottage, Pretoria" takes us back to the late 19th century in South Africa. The image, captured by an anonymous South African photographer, showcases a slice of historical African life in the city of Pretoria. The cottage stands proudly amidst its surroundings, exuding a sense of tranquility and charm. Its thatched roof and sturdy walls tell tales of resilience against the harsh elements of time. This photograph is part of a private collection, offering us a rare glimpse into this bygone era. Originally featured as an illustration for "Scenes and Life in the Transvaal" published by The Art Photo-Publishing Company around 1890, this gravure printed image holds immense historical significance. It serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage and architectural beauty that once graced Pretoria's landscape. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, we are transported back to a time when simplicity reigned supreme. We can almost imagine ourselves strolling through the streets surrounding Jesss Cottage, witnessing everyday life unfold before our eyes. Let this photograph serve as a reminder of our shared history and ignite curiosity about the lives lived within these walls over a century ago.
