EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1901, at Mount Gambier in South Australia. The image showcases the iconic Adam Lindsay Gordon Obelisk standing proudly against the backdrop of Blue Lake. This historical monument pays tribute to Adam Lindsay Gordon, a renowned Australian poet and horseman. The photograph captures the essence of early 20th-century architecture and landscape with its charming avenue lined with fences. The obelisk stands tall as a symbol of association and pride for Australians during this significant period of Federation when the Commonwealth of Australia was formed. The serene atmosphere is enhanced by the picturesque lake nestled within a crater, creating a breathtaking vista that stretches into the distance. A road winds through this idyllic countryside scene, leading our imagination towards adventure and exploration. As smoke gently rises from nearby homesteads, we can imagine life unfolding in this peaceful country setting. It's fascinating to think about how much has changed since then, yet also comforting to see that some elements have remained constant throughout history. Although created by an unknown photographer over a century ago, this print still manages to evoke feelings of nostalgia and curiosity about Australia's past. It serves as a reminder of our rich heritage and invites us to appreciate both the natural beauty and human achievements that shaped our nation.
