EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the poignant moment of Boer General Piet Joubert on his deathbed in Pretoria, South Africa. The color lithograph, created by Oswaldo Tofani in the 20th century, portrays a solemn scene that evokes both sorrow and admiration. General Joubert, known for his commanding presence and iconic beard, lies peacefully as he succumbs to death. His weathered face tells the story of a man who dedicated his life to fighting for his beliefs during the tumultuous times of the Boer War. The image serves as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by those involved in this historic conflict. The flag draped over General Joubert's bed symbolizes not only his allegiance to South Africa but also represents the resilience and spirit of its people. As one gazes upon this photograph, they cannot help but feel a sense of reverence for this fallen leader and contemplate the weighty consequences that war brings. This artwork was originally featured in Le Petit Journal on April 15th, 1900 - an illustration that undoubtedly stirred emotions among its readers at the time. Preserved within a private collection today, it continues to serve as a testament to General Joubert's legacy and stands as an enduring tribute to all those who fought valiantly during this turbulent era in South African history.
