EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white aerial photograph captures the vibrant city of Melbourne in all its historic glory. Taken by an Australian photographer in the 20th century, it showcases a small section of the city along with the Jolimont Railway Yards and the majestic River Yarra. In the distance, we catch a glimpse of Richmond, adding to the charm and character of this image. The photo is reminiscent of a bygone era, taking us back to around 1915 when it was used as an illustration for a souvenir booklet on Melbourne. The credit goes to Railway Commissioners who were responsible for capturing this stunning view from above. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we are transported back to an age where planes were still considered marvels of technology. The aircraft featured here adds another layer of interest to this historical piece, reminding us how far transportation has come since then. With its rich history and architectural beauty, Melbourne shines through even in black and white. This photograph serves as a testament to both its past grandeur and enduring allure. It allows us to appreciate not only the city's iconic landmarks but also its intricate transport network that played a vital role in shaping Melbourne into what it is today. Overall, this print offers viewers a unique perspective on Melbourne's landscape while evoking nostalgia for simpler times when air travel was still novel and exciting.
