EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of Pietermaritzburg, Natal Province, South Africa in the 1930s. The image captures four distinct scenes that showcase the essence of this vibrant town. In the first scene, we find ourselves surrounded by lush greenery as we enter the Town Gardens. The beautifully manicured lawns and blooming flowers create a serene atmosphere for visitors to enjoy nature's beauty. Moving on, our gaze is drawn towards Delville Wood Cross - a solemn memorial dedicated to those who lost their lives during World War I. Standing tall against the clear sky, this poignant monument serves as a reminder of sacrifice and bravery. As we continue our journey through Commercial Road, we are greeted by an array of impressive buildings that reflect both colonial and local architectural styles. The pavement is alive with activity as people go about their daily routines - shopping, conversing, or simply taking in the sights. Our final stop brings us to Municipal Swimming Baths where locals gather to cool off from the African heat. Laughter fills the air as children splash around in crystal-clear waters while others relax under colorful umbrellas. Each scene captured within this photograph tells its own unique story about life in Pietermaritzburg during this era. It serves as a timeless reminder of how architecture intertwines with nature and community spirit thrives amidst historical landmarks.
