This anonymous stereoscopic photograph from 1900 depicts a scene of British soldiers killed in action during the Second Boer War. The image, which has a strong sense of realism, shows a soldier tending to a fallen comrade. The scene is set against a backdrop of rocks, a common feature of the South African landscape. The photograph offers a glimpse into the devastating human cost of the war, which lasted from 1899 to 1902.
