EDITORS COMMENTS
. This lithograph, captured by Henry Charles Seppings Wright, takes us back to the momentous occasion of the opening of the Coolgardie Exhibition on 21 March. The image showcases a bustling scene in both the town and exhibition grounds, offering a fascinating insight into this significant event in Australian history. The print depicts Governor (name not mentioned) inaugurating the exhibition with great pomp and ceremony. As he stands before a grand stone portion, flanked by dignitaries and officials, one can sense the excitement and anticipation in the air. The triumphal arch erected at the entrance adds to its majestic aura. Intricate details reveal various scenes within this vibrant town. From a general view capturing architectural marvels like schools of mines and post offices to coolgardie suburbs teeming with life, every corner seems alive with activity. Notably, we see police escorts guiding important figures through Bayley Street as crowds gather to witness their arrival. The engraving beautifully captures how exhibitions served as platforms for showcasing progress and innovation during that era. It transports us back in time when visitors marveled at magnificent buildings housing displays from different industries. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece today, it serves as a reminder of our rich cultural heritage while also celebrating human achievements that have shaped our world over time.
