EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing East London Harbour in South Africa during the 19th century. The image, captured by an English photographer, is a part of a private collection and was featured in the book "Picturesque South Africa" by Dennis Edwards around 1895. The photograph beautifully portrays the constructed walls of the harbour, strategically designed to utilize the powerful flow of the river. The narrow arm driving into the sea forms a wharfage area that provides accommodation for vessels. The cleared Buffalo River mouth is protected by a breakwater, ensuring safe passage for large ships. In this picture, one can appreciate how spacious and well-maintained East London Harbour was at that time. Dredgers are seen working diligently to maintain a deep channel for vessels with substantial draughts. This crucial aspect allowed South African ships to navigate back and forth without any hindrance caused by sandbars or shallow waters. The photographer has skillfully captured both the industrial aspects of this bustling harbor as well as its natural beauty. With its picturesque surroundings and efficient infrastructure, East London Harbour played a vital role in facilitating trade and transportation along South Africa's coastline. This historic photograph serves as a remarkable testament to human ingenuity in harnessing nature's forces while creating an essential hub for maritime activities in East London during that era.
