EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the majestic passenger liner 'Ormuz' as it sails through Sydney Harbour in the late 19th century. The vessel, owned by the Orient Steam Navigation Co Ltd, exudes grandeur and sophistication with its impressive size and elegant design.
The 'Ormuz' was a paddle wheel steamer that played a significant role in transportation during this era, providing a vital link between destinations for passengers and cargo alike. Its presence on the waters of Sydney Harbour would have been a sight to behold for onlookers, showcasing the advancements in maritime technology of the time.
The photo itself is a testament to both the artistry of the unknown photographer and the historical significance of this iconic ship. The black-and-white image beautifully captures every detail of the 'Ormuz', from its towering smokestacks to its intricate paddle wheels.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from history, we are transported back to a time when steamships ruled the seas and travel was an adventure filled with wonder and excitement.
