This photo print, titled "Brisbane From Bowen Terrace, 1886" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the bustling capital city of Queensland, Australia. The image showcases a panoramic view of Brisbane's harbor, with steamships gracefully gliding through the tranquil waters. Captured in exquisite detail through wood engraving by Andrew Garran and illustrated under the supervision of Frederic B Schell for the Picturesque Atlas of Australasia, this print transports us back to the late 19th century. The monochrome aesthetic adds an air of nostalgia as we observe the paddle steamers emitting billows of smoke against a backdrop that stretches towards the Pacific Ocean. The scene is set on Bowen Terrace, offering a vantage point that allows us to witness both the town's vibrant activity and its serene natural surroundings. This enchanting landscape showcases not only Brisbane's importance as a port but also highlights its significance as a transportation hub during this era.
