EDITORS COMMENTS
This print of Circular Quay takes us back in time to 19th century Sydney Cove, Australia. The image, captured by an English photographer whose name remains unknown, showcases the bustling activity that once took place at this iconic location. In the foreground, we see a collection of sheds and wharves lining the water's edge. These structures were vital for storing and transporting goods during this era. A ferry can be seen docked nearby, ready to transport passengers across the harbor. Circular Quay itself is a hive of activity with people going about their daily routines. This snapshot offers a glimpse into Australian life during this period - a testament to its rich history. The photograph exudes an air of nostalgia as it transports us back to a time long gone. The monochromatic tones add depth and character to the scene, emphasizing every detail captured by the lens. This remarkable piece is part of a private collection but was originally featured in Glimpses of Australia, published by Werner Company around 1895. Its inclusion in this publication speaks volumes about its significance as an enduring symbol of Australian culture and heritage. Bridgeman Images has done justice in preserving this historical gem through their fine art finder platform. It serves as a reminder that photography holds immense power in capturing moments frozen in time for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
