Amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Africa, in Tanzania, the Sand River holds a rich and historic past. Witness the magnificent spectacle of a large herd of Wildebeest and Burchell's Zebra grazing by its banks, their silhouettes painted against the golden sunset. This tranquil scene once stood in stark contrast to the chaos of war, as depicted in the lithograph of Lord Roberts and his Staff watching the Boers retreat from Sand River, with General French pursuing the enemy on the extreme left. The river's serene facade belies the tumultuous events of the past, as seen in another lithograph of the South African River before and after a flood. Yet, the Sand River continues to captivate us with its timeless beauty and historical significance, as evidenced by Lord Roberts' Column crossing the Sand River Drift during the Great Advance in 1901.
