This anonymous stereoscopic photograph from 1900 captures a poignant moment in South African history. The image shows a train filled with refugees from Kimberley, South Africa, escaping after the Siege of Kimberley during the Second Boer War. The dense crowd of people crammed into open train wagons emphasizes the desperate conditions of those seeking refuge. The image serves as a visual reminder of the human cost of war and the resilience of those forced to flee their homes.
