EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the Victorian period in Australia, as depicted in this vintage lantern slide from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection, available at Mary Evans Prints Online. This evocative image transports us to a bygone era of Australian colonialism, showcasing the raw beauty of the land and the industrious spirit of the settlers. The scene is set in the Australian bush, where the mighty eucalyptus trees stand tall against the clear blue sky. In the foreground, a group of hardy settlers, dressed in the fashion of the Edwardian era, are engaged in the arduous task of tree felling. The lumberjacks, with their axes slung over their shoulders and their shirtsleeves rolled up, are focused intently on their work, their faces etched with determination and grit. The air is thick with the scent of pine and sap, as the trees, once mighty and unyielding, are brought down one by one. The timber, once the trees have been felled, will be used for building homes, constructing infrastructure, and fueling the fires of industry. The British Empire's reach extends to the farthest corners of the globe, and Australia's natural resources are no exception. This image offers a glimpse into the past, a time when the Australian landscape was transformed by the settlers' relentless pursuit of progress. It is a poignant reminder of the complex history of colonialism, and the indelible impact it had on the land and its people.
