EDITORS COMMENTS

This stunning print by George Rose showcases the Quarantine Island, providing a glimpse into the former administrative capital in Milne Bay Province, now known as Papua New Guinea. The image is part of a set of stereocard views titled "Studies through the Stereoscope" designed to be viewed on a Sun Sculpture stereoscope made by Underwood & Underwood. The Rose Stereograph Company, based in Melbourne, Sydney, Wellington & London during the early 20th century, produced this remarkable collection.

This print serves as an invaluable historical document showcasing both the artistic talent of George Rose and the untouched allure of British New Guinea at that time. It allows us to appreciate not only the picturesque view but also provides insight into how landscapes have evolved over time.
