EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative sepia print captures the image of George Coulson, a brave soldier serving in the Imperial Yeomanry during the Boer War in South Africa in the late 1890s. The Boer War, also known as the Second Anglo-Boer War, was a violent conflict between the British Empire and the Dutch-speaking Boer farmers. George Coulson is depicted sitting on a rocky outcrop, taking a moment's rest from the rigors of military life. He wears the distinctive uniform of the Imperial Yeomanry, complete with a helmet adorned with a plume of feathers, a pith helmet, puttees, and a heavy ammunition belt. A binocular case lies at his side, indicating his role as a scout or observer. Despite the harsh conditions and the constant threat of disease, Coulson served with distinction in the Boer War. However, his life was tragically cut short when he succumbed to malaria on 7 June 1901. This poignant photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by soldiers like George Coulson during this tumultuous period in history. The Imperial Yeomanry was a volunteer force raised in response to the Boer uprising, and its members were drawn from all walks of life. They were known for their courage and determination, and their uniforms were a source of pride for the soldiers who wore them. This photograph captures the spirit of the Imperial Yeomanry and the sacrifices they made during the Boer War.
