EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1901 in Port Augusta, South Australia. The creator of this mesmerizing image remains unknown, but their talent for capturing history is undeniable. Port Augusta, a natural harbor and seaport on the Spencer Gulf, was named after Augusta Sophia, Lady Young, the wife of the Governor of South Australia. The photograph showcases a picturesque coastal scene with ships moored at the harbor. A majestic mast rises high against the clear sky while seagulls gracefully soar above. These elegant birds add life to the frame as they glide effortlessly through the air. The historic significance of this moment is not lost within its beauty. This print represents an era when Australia was transitioning into a federated nation known as Federated Australia. It serves as a reminder of how far this country has come since then. As we admire this snapshot from over a century ago, we are transported to another time and place. We can almost feel the cool sea breeze on our faces and hear echoes of bustling activity along these shores. Preserved by The Werner Company in London in 1901, this piece holds immense value for those who appreciate both Australian history and photography's ability to capture fleeting moments forever.
