The appearance and the dignity of the state were impor- tant to Paul Kruger and the council (Volksraad). A capable head for the ‘Publike Werken’ department, who would identify with the state motto, was needed to improve the state’s appearance through impressive architecture and to control the state’s building projects. Sytze Wopkes Wierda, originally from the Netherlands, was personally chosen for this architectural position in the ZAR and was appointed in November 1887. His significant work and his Z.A.R. identification granted him the title ‘Hoofd van Publike Werken’. (Figure 3) From 1890 to 1899, Wierda appointed new draughtsmen, site supervisors, clerks and bookkeepers. The department did well and needed to expand further. Wierda chose to educate his students himself, ensuring a strong unity regard- ing culture-politics, and took full responsibility for their work. The plans for the ‘Staatsmuseum’ were delivered in 1899, at the end of the ZAR era, when Wierda was the main architect of ‘Die Publike Werken’. The department was already greatly hindered before the occupation of the Brit- ish, but after the Anglo-Boer War (1899 -1902) the department was completely destroyed.

  • JOHN JOHNSTON KIRKNESS Deur NA Coetzee
    JOHN JOHNSTON KIRKNESS deur N.A. Coetzee Hy is gebore op 1 April 1857 op die Orkney-Eilande, Noord-Skotland, en oorlede op 82 jarige ouderdom op 13 Junie 1939 in Pretoria. In sy studente­ jare het J.J. Kirkness hom in die boubedryf bekwaam, die Diploma in Bou­ konstruksie aan die Heriot Watt KoIIege in Edinburgh verwerf, en sy vak­ leerlingskap in die skrynwerkersbedryf voltooi om as vakman by 'n firma in Glasgow te werk. Hy het in 1879 op 22-jarige ouderdom na Suid-Afrika verhuis, by Port Elizabeth geland en vervolgens in Durban, Bethlehem en op die Barbertonse Goudvelde gewerk. Hy gaan sy vrou Mary Ann Baikie op die Orkney-Eilande haal waar huIIe te Kirkwall op 16 Junie 1884 in die huwelik tree. Terug in Suid-Afrika vestig hy hom in 1887 in Pretoria. Tydens die afsterwe van sy vrou op 20 April 1936 en met sy eie afsterwe woon die gesin, - die twee seuns en een dogter is reeds uit die hu is - in die herehuis op Pomonastraat 255, Muckleneuk, 'n huis wat Kirkness self gebou het om sy stene wat hy in sy eie steenfab riek in Groenkloof gemaak het, uit te toets. Die huis is tans in besit van die Universiteit van Suid-Afrika, 'n historiese spogwoning wat verdien om as historiese gedenkwaardigheid ver­ klaar te word. In die steenoonde met die geweldige uitgrawing wat oor baie jare die be­ kende 'Kirkness' gemerkte sierstene, dakteels, vloerteels en potte vervaardig het, was op 'n tyd een miljoen stene en 'n half miljoen ander artikels deur­ lopend in wording.

In the morning we head out to the Lion Park. Our registered tour guide takes you on a tour through the Lion Park, a natural habitat only 45 minutes drive from Johannesburg. The park is home to more than 85 lions and other carnivores like the cheetah, hyena and wild dog. The Lion Park is home to the rare white lion, so make sure you bring your camera for some exclusive shots. At Cub World you can even cuddle baby lions! And if you are not frightened by tall animals with long necks, you can also feed the giraffes and ostriches! We continue our tour with a Pretoria City experience. Pretoria is the capital of South Africa and therefore full of historic sites. We visit the Union Buildings, headquarters of the government. The buildings are beautifully situated in terraced gardens, through which you can enjoy an idyllic walk. Another major attraction on this tour is the Voortrekker Monument. This monument is of great significance to many Afrikaans-speaking South Africans; it stands for Afrikaner Nationalism. The monument is in the shape of a big stone cube. The interior walls depict the story of the Great Trek, a mass movement of Afrikaner Boers who resented British rule.

  • Hoofstuk 1 Ontluiking Van ʼn Politieke Kommentator, 1889-1894 30 Van
    Hoofstuk 1 Ontluiking van ʼn politieke kommentator, 1889-1894 Van Wouw se eerste staatsopdrag. 85 Engelenburg wou hom graag help om as kunstenaar naam te maak. Hy was beïndruk met die kunstenaar se werk en het die staatswapen beskryf as ʼn sieraad vir die gebou. Hy het in De Volksstem geskryf dat Van Wouw met hierdie eerste stuk werk wat hy gelewer het, reeds die aandag van kunskenners getrek het. Hy het gehoop dat die boumeesters en ook die publiek sy gawe sou waardeer en dat nog vele werk van sy hand geboue en wonings sou verfraai. 86 Die opening van die Raadsaal en die Volksraadsittinge in 1890 was Engelenburg se eerste ervaring van dié aard in die Republiek. Die aankoms van die Volksraadslede uit die verskillende dele van die Republiek moes sekerlik ʼn beroering onder die gemeenskap in Pretoria veroorsaak het. Engelenburg het die raadslede in De Volksstem hartlik verwelkom en die hoop uitgespreek dat God hulle werksaamhede sou seën en hulle sou lei tot heil van die volk en die regering. Hy het gewys op die moeilike taak wat vir die Volksraad voorgelê het in die vorm van verskillende voorstelle wat hulle sou moes bespreek en besluite wat hulle sou moes neem.
