EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Glimpse into the Past: A Black and White Lantern Slide of a Farm in Rhodesia (Zimbabwe), Circa 1890s 2. Description: This evocative black and white lantern slide depicts a serene and productive farm scene in Rhodesia, now known as Zimbabwe, during the late 19th century. The image, part of the Boswell Collection, Box 288, held at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a rare and captivating glimpse into the early history of British South Africa. 3. Context: The British South Africa Company, under the leadership of Cecil Rhodes, had established a colonial presence in the region, which later became known as Rhodesia and eventually Zimbabwe, in the late 1880s. This period marked the beginning of large-scale European settlement and agricultural development. 4. Scene: In the photograph, a well-tended farmstead is nestled amidst lush, green fields, with a clear, blue sky stretching overhead. A small, white farmhouse with thatched roof and chimney stands proudly at the center, surrounded by various farm buildings and structures. Farmhands, dressed in simple clothing, are visible working in the fields, while cattle graze peacefully in the background. 5. Significance: This lantern slide provides a valuable historical record of life on a Rhodesian farm during the late 1890s, a time of significant change and growth in the region. It offers a glimpse into the daily lives of European settlers and the agricultural practices they employed to establish a new community in a foreign land. 6. Preservation: The Boswell Collection, which includes this lantern slide, is an essential resource for scholars, historians, and anyone interested in the history of Zimbabwe and British colonialism in Africa. The preservation and study of such historical materials ensures that the stories and experiences of the past are not forgotten and can be shared with future generations.
