EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by Reinhold Thiele during the Boer War around 1900, we are transported back in time to witness a pivotal moment. The image showcases a bullock wagon crossing a drift, with its sturdy wheels cutting through the water as it navigates across. The scene is filled with an air of determination and resilience, as both man and animal work together harmoniously to overcome the challenges presented by nature. A lone male figure can be seen guiding the bullocks with expertise, his silhouette standing tall against the backdrop of flowing water. Thiele's masterful composition highlights not only the sheer physicality involved in this arduous task but also evokes a sense of historical significance. The Boer War was marked by intense conflict between British forces and South African settlers, making this photo all the more poignant. The use of black and white adds depth to every detail captured within the frame – from ripples forming around each hoofstep to droplets cascading off weathered wooden planks. It transports us into an era long gone, allowing us to appreciate both the beauty and hardships experienced during that tumultuous period. Reinhold Thiele's print serves as a powerful reminder of human perseverance amidst adversity while paying homage to those who played their part in shaping history.
