Otto Gerlach (German, 1862-1908)
Boer soldiers in the Transvaal
Grey wash heightened with white on paper
Signed 'O Gerlach' lower left
The Boer soldiers depicted here are most likely Gerlach's artistic interpretation of the time just post the Great Trek in the mid-19th century, given the style of their rifles. Public interest in the Boers was greatly stoked by the Boer War in the late 19th century
