EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the majestic General Post Office at Adelaide, Australia. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this image captures the grandeur of one of Adelaide's most iconic landmarks. The General Post Office stands tall on King William Street, its tower reaching towards the sky with a sense of authority and importance. The architectural details are beautifully highlighted in this monochrome composition, emphasizing the building's historical significance. As we gaze upon this photograph, we can imagine the hustle and bustle that once filled these walls. The General Post Office served as a vital hub for postal services in Australia during its time, connecting people from all corners of the country. The image transports us back to a different era when handwritten letters were cherished means of communication. It evokes nostalgia for simpler times when technology had not yet taken over our lives. This stunning piece is part of a private collection and was originally featured in Glimpses of Australia (Werner Company, c 1895). Its inclusion here allows us to appreciate both the artistry behind early photography and admire this remarkable Australian landmark that has stood witness to countless stories throughout history.
