EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment in history, showcasing "The Boer Generals and Officials of the Pro-Boer Committee at the Pro-Boer Exhibition at Scheveningen" on 20 August. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this print is part of a private collection. The image portrays a gathering of prominent figures involved in the pro-Boer movement during the Boer War. Among them are General Botha, President of South Africa; Mr. Wolmarans, Secretary; General Delarey; General De Wet; and Mr. Wessels, Treasurer. The presence of politicians, painters like Josef Israels and H. W Mesdag, as well as other delegates from Benelux countries emphasizes the international support for their cause. The photo was taken at Scheveningen in the Netherlands during a pro-Boer exhibition organized by the Pro-Boer Committee based in The Hague. This event aimed to raise awareness about the plight of Boers affected by British imperialism. Published later in The Illustrated London News on 30 August 1902, this image serves as an illustration accompanying an article discussing these influential individuals' efforts to garner support for their cause. With its historical significance and portrayal of key players advocating for Boer rights amidst European tensions, this photograph offers valuable insights into one aspect of early 20th-century politics and international relations within Europe.
