Glenelg, 1901 - A Glimpse into Australia's Oldest European Settlement
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to Glenelg in 1901, a suburb of Adelaide nestled on the picturesque Holdfast Bay in Gulf St Vincent. The image showcases the historic jetty that was constructed in 1857, standing tall as a testament to the area's rich colonial past. Glenelg holds significant historical importance as it served as South Australia's first European settlement when established in 1836. Prior to this, it was home to the Kaurna Indigenous Australians, adding layers of cultural heritage to its already fascinating story. In this snapshot from over a century ago, we see a man rambling along the wooden pier while others row their boats nearby. The wind-whipped water transports us back in time, offering an authentic glimpse into daily life during this era. The scenic vista captures both the natural beauty of Glenelg and its thriving community. As we observe people going about their day against the backdrop of breathtaking scenery, we can't help but marvel at how far this region has come since then. Preserved by "Federated Australia" and printed by "The Werner Company" this photograph serves as a valuable piece of history that allows us to reflect upon our roots and appreciate the progress made over generations. It is truly remarkable how one image can transport us through time and connect us with our shared past.
