EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the Treasury and Secretariat Office in Dar-es-Salaam, Tanzania, during the colonial era, circa 1918. The British rule in Tanganyika, now known as Tanzania, had been established since 1891, and the need for a centralized government administration grew as the territory expanded. The Treasury and Secretariat Office served as the hub of the British colonial administration, housing various departments and offices. The imposing structure, with its red-tiled roofs and grandiose architecture, stands proudly against the backdrop of lush, tropical trees. The trees, a stark contrast to the European-designed building, serve as a reminder of the rich African landscape that surrounded the colonial outpost. The East African sun casts a warm glow over the buildings, illuminating the intricate details of the architecture. The British flag flies high atop the building, symbolizing the British presence and control over the territory. The trees, with their branches reaching out, seem to offer a sense of respite from the bustling administrative activities taking place within the walls of the office. The photograph provides a glimpse into the history of Tanzania's colonial past, a time marked by the intersection of African and European cultures. The Treasury and Secretariat Office, with its grandeur and significance, stands as a testament to the colonial administration that once ruled over Tanganyika.
