EDITORS COMMENTS
This powerful and evocative photograph, titled "Marche Des Boers" or "March of the Boers," was captured by renowned Belgian photographer Desire Leclercq in 1902. The image is dedicated to "Salut a nos amis les Heros du Transvaal," a heartfelt salute to the brave heroes of Transvaal, a region in South Africa that was the epicenter of a devastating war between the Dutch-speaking Boers and the British Empire. The Boers, also known as the Afrikaners, were primarily Dutch and Flemish settlers who had established their own republics in South Africa, seeking independence from British rule. The Second Boer War, which lasted from 1899 to 1902, was a brutal conflict marked by guerrilla warfare, scorched earth tactics, and the use of concentration camps. Desire Leclercq's photograph captures a poignant moment during the war, as a group of Boer women and children, many of them refugees, march along a dusty road. Their faces are etched with fatigue, determination, and resilience, reflecting the hardships they had endured during the conflict. The image is a testament to the indomitable spirit of the Boer people and their unwavering commitment to their cause. It is important to note that the term "heros" in the dedication does not refer to the British, but rather to the Boers themselves. The photograph is a powerful reminder of the complex history of South Africa and the sacrifices made by all sides during a time of conflict and upheaval.
