EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse of the town of Hobart, Tasmania in 1821, when it was home to just 2,700 inhabitants residing in 400 homes. The scene showcases various important landmarks of the time, including the government building, school, church, prison, battery and telegraph signals.
The handcoloured copperplate engraving from Friedrich Johann Bertuch's Bilderbuch fur Kinder (Picture Book for Children) provides a detailed look at the layout and architecture of this early settlement. From the bustling harbor to the imposing jail and church spire reaching towards the sky, every element tells a story of life in colonial Australia.
As one gazes upon this historical image, they can almost imagine what it must have been like to walk through these streets over two centuries ago. The simplicity and charm of this small town are evident in every detail captured by the artist's skilled hand.
This piece serves as a valuable reminder of our past and how far we have come since those early days. It is a testament to the resilience and ingenuity of those who built communities from scratch in distant lands. Let us cherish and preserve such glimpses into history for future generations to appreciate and learn from.
