EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a glimpse of history in Australia, specifically Hunter Street in Newcastle. The year is 1891, and the scene is lined with towering telegraph poles that stretch along the road. These poles were once vital for communication, carrying messages across vast distances.
The image showcases the quaint charm of old Newcastle, with its cobblestone streets and historic architecture. The telegraph poles stand tall against the backdrop of a clear blue sky, symbolizing progress and connectivity in an era before modern technology.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from over a century ago, we are transported back in time to an era where life moved at a slower pace. The simplicity of daily life is evident in the absence of cars or bustling crowds - just a quiet street lined with wooden poles that served as lifelines for communication.
Mary Evans Picture Library has beautifully preserved this piece of Australian history through their meticulous attention to detail and dedication to showcasing historical moments through photography. This print serves as a reminder of how far we have come technologically while also highlighting the importance of preserving our past for future generations to appreciate.
