Captain Fritz Duquesne

Here we present a dramatic image of Captain Fritz Duquesne, who was a South African Boer soldier, prisoner of war, big game hunter, journalist, war correspondent, Anglophobe, stockbroker, saboteur, spy, and adventurer whose hatred for the British caused him to volunteer to spy for Germany during both World Wars.

The image shows Capt. Fritz Duquesne.

We have created this collection of images primarily to serve as a valuable educational tool. Contact curator@old-picture.com.
