EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide depicts the Sutherland Dry Dock on Cockatoo Island, Sydney, Australia, being filled with water during the late 1890s. Cockatoo Island, the largest island in Sydney Harbour, is home to these historic docks, which played a significant role in the city's maritime history. Sydney, the most populous city in Australia and the state capital of New South Wales, is situated on the south-east coast of the Tasman Sea. The Sutherland Dry Dock, a marvel of engineering from the late 19th century, allowed for the repair and maintenance of large vessels, contributing to Sydney's status as a major port city. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the industrial prowess and ingenuity of the time. The serene reflection of the dock's surroundings in the still water adds to the image's charm and historical significance. This slide, part of the Boswell Collection, is a testament to the rich maritime heritage of Sydney and provides a fascinating insight into its history.
