The new steam-ship Australia, 1876. Creator: J. R. W
The new steam-ship Australia, 1876. Ocean-going steamer in the South West India Dock, River Thames. A number of state rooms on the upper or hurricane deck are arranged for two passengers only, while a few are admirably adapted for families. These are covered by a light and elegant deck, affording an excellent promenade for passengers during the daytime, and projecting sufficiently over each side to provide both an awning for the cabins and a roomy, sheltered walk...The dining-saloon...is lighted and ventilated by a lofty dome-shaped skylight, which is one of the most striking features of the ship. Contrary to custom, the saloon is placed forward of the funnel, thus escaping the smoke and heat from the engine-room. The Australia has accommodation for 164 first-class, 24 second-class, and 85 third-class passengers'. From "Illustrated London News", 1876

EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking print captures the majestic presence of the new steam-ship Australia as it docks in the South West India Dock on the River Thames in 1876. The Australia was a state-of-the-art ocean-going steamer that offered luxurious accommodations for its passengers. The upper or hurricane deck featured a number of private cabins, some of which were designed for two passengers and others for families. These cabins were covered by a light and elegant deck, providing an excellent promenade for passengers during the daytime and shelter from the elements. One of the most notable features of the ship was the dining-saloon, which was situated forward of the funnel to escape the smoke and heat from the engine-room. The saloon was brightly lit and well-ventilated through a lofty dome-shaped skylight, creating an elegant and spacious dining area for first-class passengers. The Australia was designed to accommodate a total of 164 first-class, 24 second-class, and 85 third-class passengers, making it a true transatlantic liner. This print, created by J.R.W for the Illustrated London News in 1876, offers a glimpse into the luxurious world of ocean travel during the nineteenth century. The Australia represented the latest in maritime technology and transportation, offering passengers a comfortable and efficient journey across the Atlantic.
