EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a significant moment during the British Expedition to Somaliland. The scene depicts a typical route between Berbera and Bohotle, showcasing the diverse landscape of this African region. Taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, this print offers a glimpse into history. In the foreground, we see British officers' huts, indicating their presence and influence in this foreign land. Surrounding them are vast stretches of sandy terrain with scattered vegetation, giving us a sense of the challenging environment they faced on their expedition. Midway through the frame stands a group of British soldiers who appear relieved yet vigilant as they navigate through unfamiliar territory. Their journey is not without its dangers, but their determination shines through as they press forward towards their destination. Adding to the authenticity of this image are glimpses of local life along the route. Fat-tailed sheep graze peacefully nearby while Somaliland delicacies may be seen being prepared at Wadamagoa camp. These details provide insight into both cultural exchange and daily life during this time period. Overall, this photograph serves as a testament to exploration and adventure undertaken by these brave British officers in Somaliland over a century ago. It invites viewers to reflect upon historical events that have shaped our world today while appreciating the artistry captured within its frames.
