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. The narrow isthmus connecting the Tasman Peninsula with the Forestier Peninsula served as a strategic location during the 1830s when British authorities used it to prevent convicts from escaping Port Arthur prison. In this image, we witness a line of dogs chained to posts along this historic pathway. As we explore this snapshot further, our eyes are drawn beyond the canine sentinels towards a cluster of quaint houses perched atop rooftops against a scenic backdrop. These humble dwellings stand as witnesses to bygone eras and tell tales of resilience amidst isolation. The rugged beauty of Tasmania is showcased in every detail - from the remote landscape surrounding Eagle-Hawk Neck to its dramatic headland jutting out into Oceania's vast expanse. This vista evokes both awe and contemplation about Australia's geographical features and its rich tapestry of history.

It serves as a reminder that even in today's modern world, echoes
