Duggan-Cronin Gallery is one of the best photography museums in South Africa. Alfred Duggan-Cronin came to Kimberley in 1897 to work for De Beers as a security officer in the compounds, but he soon began photographing the different tribes that worked the mines. This passion expanded and eventually led Duggan-Cronin to document indigenous peoples on more than 18 expeditions throughout South Africa and neighboring countries.
