EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to Adelaide in 1923, a city named in honor of Queen Adelaide of Saxe-Meiningen. As the planned capital for a British province in Australia, Adelaide was founded in 1836 with the vision of creating a thriving settlement. The aerial view captured here showcases the city's growth and development during the early 20th century. The image reveals an expansive landscape with rows of buildings stretching into the horizon. The streets are bustling with people going about their day, adding life and movement to this snapshot of history. Tall trees line the avenues, providing shade and beauty to the urban environment. The monochrome aesthetic adds a timeless quality to this scene, allowing us to appreciate both its historical significance and artistic value. It is evident that nature plays an integral role in shaping Adelaide's identity as parks and green spaces dot the cityscape. This photograph comes from "Australia, New Zealand and Oceania in Pictures" authored by H. Clive Barnard, M. A. , Blitt. , offering readers a glimpse into this vibrant country during that era. While we may not know who specifically captured this momentous shot, it serves as a testament to human progress and our ability to create thriving cities amidst natural landscapes.
