EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a stunning view of Brisbane, showcasing the iconic Victoria Bridge in the foreground and the elegant Grey Street Bridge. Taken by an Australian photographer in the mid-20th century, this image is part of a private collection. The composition beautifully portrays the city's historical charm during the 1940s, with its distinct architectural features and serene atmosphere. The monochromatic tones add a timeless quality to the scene, transporting viewers back to a bygone era. This particular photograph was used as an illustration for "In Search of Australia" by P J Hurley, published by Dymocks in 1949. It offers a glimpse into Australia's rich history and serves as a visual representation of Brisbane's development during that time. With no specified photo credit given, it remains unclear who exactly captured this remarkable moment. However, its inclusion in Look and Learn magazine further emphasizes its significance within Australian art history. As we delve into this early to mid-20th-century masterpiece, we are reminded of how photography can immortalize moments from our past. This image allows us to appreciate both Brisbane's unique beauty and Australia's cultural heritage while contemplating how much has changed over time.
