Salisbury Rhodesia Photo Album
Colonial Africa Salisbury Rhodesia Settler Family Photo Album with Mining and Indigenous Labor 1920s
1923. Salisbury Southern Rhodesia dated in the album to 1923 and 1925 anchors this photograph album in the domestic world of white settler colonial rule where household comfort horseback leisure indigenous mining labor and racial hierarchy appear as parts of the same social order. Manuscript captions identify the Horwood estate in Salisbury and an earlier inserted photograph inscribed "Rua Mine / Mount Darwin / Rhodesia S.A. / 16.1.10" linking the family's Salisbury residence to the extractive frontier north of the capital. Other photographs place the family with African people in explicitly unequal colonial settings including a rickshaw carriage pulled by a man in ceremonial dress a white man posed before a grass hut with an African woman in the background and additional rural and domestic views that situate white family life within the labor transport and land structures of Southern Rhodesia in the first years after responsible government.<br /> <br /> Southern Rhodesia photograph album. Salisbury Rhodesia 1923-1925 with one earlier photograph dated Mount Darwin 1910. String-bound album containing 34 photographs 6 of them loose primarily small vernacular black-and-white prints mounted to dark album leaves with contemporary manuscript captions. Most photos measure 4" x 6". Identified subjects include the house named "Horwood" in Salisbury its drawing room the child "George" horseback portraits captioned "Kath and some of Ginger" "John Dupe and Pepper" and "M H Pepper / Kath Ginger" a rickshaw outing captioned with "Belle Murks Kath" rural waterways grass-roofed structures mounted riding scenes outdoor recreation a page captioned "Salisbury 1923" and two small photographs of uniformed men on shipboard one captioned "W.S. Medlic" with an additional note reading "Shark caught with boat hook baited with mutton on Medlic." The inserted Mount Darwin image carries the fullest inscription in the album naming Rua Mine and dating the mining connection to January 16 1910.<br /> <br /> The album belongs to the settler phase when Salisbury functioned as the administrative and residential center of a colony built on land alienation mining capital and African labor regulated for white economic and domestic advantage. Its sequence moves between house horse child servant or transport encounter mining inscription and military association without separating them which is precisely what gives the object its documentary force: the album records colonial privilege not as an abstract policy but as ordinary family life organized through African service segregated space and access to land and extraction. Rubbing and edge wear to covers expected toning and handling wear to photographs and leaves scattered corner wear and six photographs now loose; overall good condition. A family album of Southern Rhodesian settler life in which domestic comfort in Salisbury and an earlier Mount Darwin mining reference remain inseparable from the colonial labor order that sustained them. unknown

Stefano Andreani
Breve storia della Rhodesia (1965-1980)
L'11 novembre 1965 il governo di minoranza bianco della colonia britannica della Rhodesia del Sud (Africa australe, attuale Zimbabwe), con premier Ian Smith, dichiarava unilateralmente l'indipendenza con l'UDI - Unilateral Declaration of Indipendence. La Rhodesia della White Supremacy era la seconda economia dell'Africa nera dopo il Sudafrica, e il più importante mercato dei capitali d'Africa dopo la Johannesburg Stock Exchange. Nel 1980, 15 anni dopo l'UDI e in seguito ad una sanguinosa guerr, la Rhodesia nemmeno nominalmente esisteva più: si costituiva al suo posto lo Zimbabwe africano di Robert Mugabe. Autori: Stefano Andreani.
