EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of departure for a contingent of New Zealand troops as they bid farewell to their loved ones and homeland, bound for the far-off shores of South Africa during the Boer War in 1900. The scene takes place in Wellington, New Zealand, where an enthusiastic crowd has gathered to see off the brave soldiers who would soon be embarking on a long and perilous journey. The image is filled with a sense of anticipation and solemnity, as the troops, clad in their military uniforms and carrying their equipment, stand at attention, while their families and friends wave and call out words of encouragement and support. Horses and wagons are loaded with supplies, and the steamship that will carry the soldiers across the vast expanse of the Pacific Ocean can be seen in the background, its smokestacks belching plumes of steam. The Boer War, which lasted from 1899 to 1902, was a significant event in New Zealand's history, with over 6,000 of its citizens serving in the conflict. This photograph offers a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by these soldiers and their families, and the profound impact that the war had on New Zealand's national identity. The photograph is a testament to the courage and resilience of the men and women who answered the call to duty, and the enduring bonds of love and loyalty that sustained them through the challenges of war and separation. It is a powerful reminder of a pivotal moment in history, and a poignant tribute to the brave New Zealanders who answered the call to serve their country in a far-off land.
