Earlier, we reported that the renowned South African photographer Peter Magubane was being laid to rest in an official state funeral.
The service has now finished – here are some of the tributes that were paid to the late anti-apartheid activist:
South African President Cyril Ramaphosa: “Beatings, detentions, imprisonment and 586 consecutive days of solitary confinement. But despite all attempts to break his spirit and to take him away from his craft he would not put his camera down”.
Mr Magubane’s grandaughter, Lungile Magubane: “Our grandfather was not just a photojournalist or a struggle photographer – no. He should rightfully be remembered as a multi-potentialite, an artist who spent his life creating visual archives for the cannon South African cultural history.”
South African actor John Kani: “The mist of stones and dustbins and bullets flying and teargas, he wanted to photograph those that were grabbed by the police. And the police did not fear so much our stones and petrol bombs, they feared that camera exposed the brutality and it was a record.”
