“Looking up the garden, Rhodes House.” Landscape view of the ornate gardens at Groote Schuur, the house once belonged to Cecil Rhodes and is situated at Rondebosch on the Devil’s Peak. 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.
