EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grandeur and elegance of the Government Buildings in Pretoria, Transvaal, South Africa. Taken around 1910, it offers a glimpse into the architectural marvels that adorned this bustling city during that era. The neoclassical and baroque influences are evident in the design of these magnificent structures. The large columns and pillars at the front facade exude a sense of strength and power, while the clock atop adds a touch of sophistication. The balustrade lining the building's perimeter adds an element of grace to its overall appearance. Church Square, where these buildings stand proudly, is brought to life by pedestrians strolling along its pavements. People from all walks of life can be seen enjoying their day amidst lush green grass and ornate fountains. The urns placed strategically throughout add a touch of artistic flair to this already picturesque scene. This print serves as a visual time capsule, transporting us back to an era when architecture was celebrated for its beauty and intricacy. It reminds us of South Africa's rich history and cultural heritage as we admire these remarkable government buildings standing tall against the backdrop of Pretoria's vibrant cityscape.
