EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the city of Melbourne in 1855, offering a glimpse into its bustling streets and vibrant atmosphere. The engraving, originally featured in The Illustrated London News on November 24th of that year, showcases the cityscape from an elevated viewpoint. From this vantage point, we can appreciate the sprawling hillsides surrounding Melbourne as well as the clear blue sky above. The rider captured in the image adds a sense of movement and life to the scene, perhaps enjoying an outing through this thriving metropolis. Melbourne itself is depicted as a growing urban center with its distinctive architecture and layout. This snapshot from history allows us to witness how the city looked during this pivotal time in Australia's development. As one of Victoria's most significant cities, Melbourne played a crucial role in shaping Oceania's cultural landscape. The monochrome aesthetic lends an air of nostalgia to this nineteenth-century artwork while emphasizing intricate details within each stroke. Although created by an unknown artist or creator, their skillful execution transports us back to a bygone era. As we admire this remarkable print from The Print Collector collection without commercial intentions but purely for historical appreciation purposes only, it serves as a reminder of how far Melbourne has come while honoring its rich heritage rooted deep within these iconic streets.
