EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph titled "Cicada, Burwood, Sydney, State Home for Children" takes us back in time to early 20th century Australia. The image captures the innocence and vulnerability of children living in a state home during this era. The photographer, an Australian artist from the 20th century whose name remains unknown, beautifully portrays the essence of childhood through this poignant composition. The children featured in the photo are seen huddled together, their expressions reflecting a mix of curiosity and resilience. This particular print is part of a private collection that showcases historical moments from Australia's past. It serves as a powerful reminder of our nation's history and the challenges faced by those who grew up in such institutions. The title "Cicada" adds an intriguing layer to the image - perhaps symbolizing the cyclical nature of life or hinting at how these children found solace amidst adversity. Originally used as an illustration for Edwin J Brady's book "Australia Unlimited" published around 1916 by George Robertson, this photograph has become a significant piece within Australian art history. Through its depiction of child life at Burwood State Home in Sydney, this photograph invites us to reflect on our society's progress since then while also honoring those who have overcome difficult circumstances.
