This stereoscopic photograph by Underwood & Underwood, taken in 1900, shows the Inniskilling Dragoons, a cavalry regiment of the British Army, on their way to Modder River in South Africa. The image captures the regiment in formation, with the soldiers mounted on their horses and facing the camera. The image provides a snapshot of British military life in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and speaks to the historical significance of the Second Boer War. This photographic print, likely intended for a home audience, would have been viewed using a stereoscope to create a three-dimensional effect. The stereoscopic format was popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries and allowed viewers to experience a sense of presence in the scene.
