EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the year 1901, capturing a moment in time on the Eagle-Hawk Neck of Tasmania's mesmerizing Tasman Peninsula. The photographer remains unknown, but their lens has immortalized an important piece of Australian history.

This vista evokes both awe and contemplation about Australia's geographical features and its rich tapestry of history.
