Two officers on horseback, Dodoma, Tanzania, July-November 1917

1917

“You didn’t know I was a rider? Note how the good rider always looks as if he were part of his horse!” Portrait of two men on horseback at a military camp. On the right is Lt. A C Irvine and on the left is probably Captain Mather both stationed at the Dodoma carrier hospital. ❧ The image is from an album chronicling the war time experiences of Archibald Clive Irvine (1893-1974) in German East Africa and Portuguese East Africa with the Royal Army Medical Corps. During this time he would meet Dr John W Arthur which in turn would lead to his missionary work at Chogoria in Kenya.
