EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Hulton Archive takes us back to 16th June 1937, showcasing the main channel of Australia's irrigation system. The image captures the impressive construction of the irrigation canal, stretching out into the distance with an arching dam in view. The Hume Dam on the River Murray stands tall as a symbol of progress and development. The rear view perspective allows us to appreciate the scale and magnitude of this engineering feat. Water flows steadily through the channel, representing life-giving sustenance for crops and agriculture in this arid land. This photograph serves as a testament to human ingenuity and our ability to harness nature's resources for societal benefit. In its black and white format, this image evokes a sense of nostalgia, transporting us back to an era when such infrastructure was crucial for economic growth. It reminds us that even amidst vast landscapes like those found in Australasia, order can be established through careful planning and execution. As we gaze upon this portrait-like perspective captured by Australian Views, we are reminded of how far we have come in terms of technological advancements since then. This print is not just a historical artifact but also a reminder that water management remains essential today as we face new challenges related to climate change.
