This stereoscopic photograph, titled "Gevangen Boeren wachten bij de Modderrivier, Zuid-Afrika", captures a poignant scene from the Second Boer War. The image shows a group of Boer prisoners of war, likely captured during the British military operations in South Africa. The image's composition, with the Boers sitting on the ground, conveys a sense of defeat and uncertainty. The photograph, taken by an anonymous photographer in 1900, serves as a powerful reminder of the human cost of the conflict and the enduring impact of war on the lives of ordinary people. The image's historical significance and the emotional impact of the scene make it a compelling example of photojournalism in the early 20th century.
