Cecil Rhodes House, Cape Town, South Africa, June 1917

1917

“Cecil Rhodes house, back.” Exterior view of Groote Schuur, a Cape Dutch style building in Rondebosch, once owned by Cecil Rhodes. The photograph was taken during a sightseeing trip by RAMC officers during a stopover in Cape Town on their way to German East Africa. ❧ The image is from an album chronicling the war time experiences of Archibald Clive Irvine (1893-1974) in East Africa. During this time he would meet Dr John W Arthur which in turn would lead to his missionary work at Chogoria in Kenya.
