Roberts at Driefontein, 1900 - A Glimpse into the Second Anglo-Boer War

EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print captures a significant moment during the Battle of Driefontein in 1900, showcasing British Field Marshal Lord Roberts amidst the turmoil of the Second Anglo-Boer War. The conflict unfolded in what is now South Africa between Great Britain and the independent Boer republics. Lord Roberts, also known as Baron Roberts of Kandahar and Waterford, stands tall on his horse, exuding an air of authority and determination. Clad in military attire, he epitomizes strength and leadership as he surveys the battlefield with unwavering focus. The image offers a glimpse into the harsh realities faced by soldiers during this tumultuous period. The horses surrounding Lord Roberts symbolize their vital role in warfare - loyal companions who carried brave men through treacherous terrains. As one of Britain's most esteemed military figures, Lord Frederick Sleigh Roberts played a crucial role in shaping history. His strategic prowess led to pivotal victories for the British forces throughout this grueling war. Preserved through time on a colored lantern slide from W. Butcher and Sons Ltd. , this photograph serves as a testament to both human resilience and historical significance. It allows us to reflect upon an era defined by conflict while honoring those who fought valiantly for their respective nations. With its vibrant colors and intricate details captured over a century ago, this print transports us back to a time when courage clashed against adversity on African soil – forever etching itself into our collective memory.

Actually, The Blockhouses Were About 600 Yards Apart; That Is, About Three To Every Mile. It Will Be Seen That All The Railways Were Protected By A Line Of Little Forts Along One Side Of The Rails, And That Pretoria And Johannesburg Were Surrounded By A Network Of Blockhouse Cordons. The Other Lines Sometimes Followed Roadways, As From Bloemfontein To Ladybrand, Or They Cut Across The Open In Order To Close Districts Used By The Boer Bands, Such As The Lindley-Bethlehem Country.
