EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the distinguished figure of Hon. W. P. Schreiner, C. M. G. , who served as the Premier of the Cape Parliament from 1898 to 1900 during a tumultuous period in South African history. William Philip Schreiner was not only a barrister and politician but also a statesman of great significance, particularly due to his role as Prime Minister of Cape Colony during the Second Boer War. Captured by renowned photographers Elliott and Fry, this image exudes an air of authority and intellect. Mr. Schreiner's stern yet thoughtful expression is accentuated by his well-groomed mustache, which adds to his dignified appearance. The photograph is taken from "South Africa and the Transvaal War, Vol. III" by Louis Creswicke, published in 1900 by T. C & E. C Jack in Edinburgh. It offers us a glimpse into the political landscape of late Victorian Britain and its influence on South Africa at that time. As we delve into this historical artifact, we are reminded of how individuals like Honorable W. P. Schreiner played pivotal roles in shaping nations amidst times of conflict and change within the British Empire. This remarkable portrait serves as both a testament to Mr. Schreiner's legacy as well as an important document for those interested in exploring South African politics during this era or studying influential figures who left their mark on history.
