EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the early 20th century, specifically to Parliament House in Brisbane, Australia. The image showcases the grandeur of this historic building, which was constructed by Joshua Jeays based on plans by Charles Tiffin. The photograph captures a moment in time when controversy and indecision surrounded the construction of Parliament House. However, despite these challenges, the foundation stone was laid on July 14th, 1865 by Sir George Bowen. This architectural masterpiece stands as a symbol of colonialism and political power during that era. Surrounded by lush greenery and towering trees, Parliament House sits proudly at the corner of a street with railings lining its facade. The image offers a glimpse into an avenue filled with historical significance and political association. As we admire this snapshot from "Federated Australia" published in London in 1901 by The Werner Company, it is important to appreciate not only the beauty of this architectural marvel but also its place within Australian history. It serves as a reminder of how far the country has come since federation and highlights Queensland's role within the Commonwealth. This print allows us to step back in time and witness an iconic landmark that continues to shape Australian politics today.
