EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "The Market, Kimberley, c1900" takes us back in time to the bustling market scene of early 20th century South Africa. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but their ability to capture the essence of a vibrant marketplace is evident. In the foreground, we see a man standing proudly beside his ox-drawn wagon, loaded with goods ready for trade. The presence of these sturdy animals symbolizes the importance of road transport during that era. Behind him, local people engage in lively conversations while going about their daily activities amidst a backdrop filled with various stalls and carts. The clock tower stands tall as a silent witness to the constant movement and transactions taking place below. It serves as a reminder that time waits for no one in this busy market hub. "The Market, Kimberley" transports us to an era when British influence was prominent in South Africa's northern Cape Province. This photograph is part of Charles Lang Neil's book "South Africa in Peace and War" which showcases Britain's colonial legacy through literature and imagery. As we delve into this monochrome snapshot from Miles & Miles' collection published by London-based publishers, we are reminded not only of the historical significance but also appreciate how art can preserve moments frozen in time.
