EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the mesmerizing beauty of the Basaltic Columns at Kiama Quarries in New South Wales, Australia. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print showcases the unique geological formations that have fascinated visitors for centuries. The image portrays a scene filled with metal and stone, as quarrymen work diligently amidst towering basaltic columns. The rugged landscape serves as a testament to human perseverance and ingenuity, as these workers construct roads and buildings within this challenging environment. Glimpses of Australia, a publication by Werner Company circa 1895, featured this illustration to showcase the natural wonders found across Oceania. It is evident that this photograph perfectly encapsulates the raw beauty of Australian landscapes. As we gaze upon this historical snapshot, we are transported back in time to witness the dedication and craftsmanship of Australians who shaped their surroundings with determination. From New South Wales to South Australia and West Australia, these basaltic columns stand tall as symbols of resilience and pride. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece from its private collection so that future generations can appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance.
