"Gezicht op de Wemmer goudmijn te Johannesburg" is a photograph by James F. Goch, taken in 1896, depicting a view of the Wemmer gold mine in Johannesburg. The image shows the mine's headframe, a tall structure used to hoist ore from the shaft, as well as several outbuildings. A single figure stands in the foreground, adding a sense of scale to the scene. The photograph is a valuable historical document, offering a glimpse into the early days of the South African gold rush and the industrial development of Johannesburg.
