1. Title: Brisbane Exhibition Ground and General Hospital: A Snapshot of Queensland's History This evocative black-and-white photograph captures the essence of Brisbane Exhibition Ground and General Hospital in the early 1900s. Located in the heart of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, this historic site is a testament to the city's rich past. The Exhibition Grounds, established in 1879, were initially designed to host annual exhibitions showcasing agricultural produce, industrial innovations, and artistic creations. Over the years, they evolved into a popular venue for various events, including the Royal Queensland Show, also known as the Ekka, which continues to be a much-loved tradition in Brisbane. Adjacent to the Exhibition Grounds stands the General Hospital, which opened its doors in 1896. The hospital was a significant medical facility during the early 20th century, providing essential healthcare services to the growing population of Brisbane and its surrounding areas. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, with the Exhibition Grounds bustling with activity and the General Hospital standing proudly in the background. The image transports us back in time, allowing us to imagine the sights, sounds, and smells of a bygone era. As we admire this historical snapshot, we are reminded of the importance of preserving our past for future generations. The Brisbane Exhibition Ground and General Hospital continue to be cherished landmarks in the city, serving as a reminder of its vibrant history and the resilient spirit of the Queensland community. This photograph, by Rights Managed from Mary Evans Prints Online, is an invaluable resource for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the history of Brisbane and Queensland. It offers a unique perspective on the city's past, inviting us to explore the stories and memories that have shaped its present.
