EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Christiaan De Wet, a prominent figure in South African history. De Wet, depicted here in his military attire with a commanding presence, was not only an Afrikaner soldier but also a skilled politician and big game hunter. The image showcases De Wet addressing a group of burghers near Ventersdorp Station during the 2nd Boer War. With passion and conviction, he encourages them to cross into the Cape Colony and rally rebels against British rule. This moment exemplifies his leadership qualities as he inspires others to join the fight for independence. De Wet's involvement in both the 1st Boer War and 2nd Boer War highlights his unwavering commitment to his country. His rebellious spirit is evident through his bearded appearance, symbolizing defiance against foreign forces. As an orator, De Wet captivates his audience with persuasive speeches that ignite hope and determination among those listening. His influence extends beyond military strategy; he plays a crucial role in shaping political discourse during this tumultuous time. This portrait serves as a powerful reminder of Christiaan De Wet's significant contributions to South Africa's struggle for freedom.
