EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the raw essence of the De Beers Diamond Mine at Kimberley, South Africa during the late 19th century. The image, part of the Boswell Collection, Box 287, South Africa Diamond Mines, and slide number 40.250, dates back to the 1890s. The mine, operated by the renowned De Beers company, is depicted as a labyrinth of tunnels and shafts, excavated deep into the earth. The scene is one of industriousness and determination, with miners toiling away in the dimly lit mine, their figures barely visible against the dark background. The vast expanse of the mine, punctuated by the occasional beam of light, speaks to the monumental scale of the diamond mining industry during this period. The photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a tangible connection to the rich history of diamond mining in South Africa. The image, while not commercial in nature, serves as a poignant reminder of the human endeavor and the significant role that the diamond industry played in shaping the economic and social landscape of South Africa during the late 19th century.
