EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Hindley Street, Adelaide in the year 1901. The bustling city street is a snapshot of history, showcasing the early development of Adelaide in the 19th century. Named after Charles Hindley, a British parliamentarian and social reformist, Hindley Street was one of the first roads built when the city was established in the 1830s. The image captures a vibrant scene filled with people going about their day. Men and women can be seen strolling along the avenue, exploring various shops that line both sides of the street. The architecture reflects colonial influences, reminding us of Australia's past as part of the British Empire. As we delve into this photograph, it becomes evident that Hindley Street served as a hub for commerce and social interaction during this time period. The shop fronts proudly display signs advertising their goods and services to passersby. Pedestrians navigate through busy lanes while others stop to engage in conversation or admire storefront displays. This historic image not only provides insight into daily life at the turn of the century but also serves as a reminder of how cities evolve over time. It encapsulates an era where urbanization was taking shape in Australia, paving its way towards becoming an independent nation within Federation just four years later. The photographer behind this remarkable piece remains unknown; however, their work has allowed us to glimpse into Adelaide's rich heritage and appreciate its transformation throughout history.
