EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the historic moment of the Arrival of the Duke and Duchess at Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, circa 1900. Brisbane, the capital and most populous city in Queensland and the third most populous city in Australia, is seen here bustling with excitement as the royal couple approaches the shore. A carriage, adorned with elegant decorations, waits eagerly for their arrival, while soldiers in uniform stand at attention, forming a guard of honor. The crowds, a sea of hats and parasols, eagerly anticipate a glimpse of the esteemed visitors. The lantern slide, part of the Boswell collection from Tour of the Colonies, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, transporting us back in time to an era of grandeur and royal pomp. Brisbane, then as now, was a city of great significance, and this photograph encapsulates the sense of pride and excitement that accompanied the arrival of the Duke and Duchess to this vibrant and growing Australian metropolis.
