1891 Brisbane Carriages Corner Distance Tram
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment in time on Brisbane's Queen Street in 1891. The bustling street corner at Edward Street is filled with several horse-drawn carriages, each one a snapshot of the era's transportation. In the distance, a tram can be seen making its way down the road, adding to the historical charm of this scene.
The architecture of the buildings lining Queen Street gives us a glimpse into Brisbane's past, showcasing a mix of Victorian and early colonial styles. The hustle and bustle of daily life are evident as people go about their business on foot or by carriage, creating a lively atmosphere that feels almost palpable even over a century later.
This image is not just a photograph but also a window into history, allowing us to imagine what life was like in Brisbane during this period. It serves as a reminder of how much has changed since then while also highlighting the timeless quality of certain aspects of city living.
Mary Evans Picture Library has preserved this piece of Australian history for future generations to appreciate and learn from. It stands as both an artistic representation and an invaluable historical document that continues to captivate viewers with its rich detail and vivid storytelling.
