EDITORS COMMENTS
This lithograph print, titled "View of Canberra, proposed federal capital of Australia, 1913" offers a glimpse into the ambitious vision for Australia's future capital city. Created by an English School artist in the early 20th century, this piece showcases the idealized urban landscape planned for Canberra. The image portrays a meticulously designed cityscape nestled along a serene river. The grandeur and precision of the architectural structures are evident as they rise majestically against the backdrop of vast open spaces. This artwork captures the essence of meticulous planning and forward-thinking that went into envisioning this new Australian capital. With its wide streets and carefully laid out neighborhoods, this depiction exudes an air of promise and progress. It transports viewers to a time when dreams were being transformed into reality on paper. As we gaze upon this engraving from The Sphere magazine dated January 25th, 1913, it is impossible not to marvel at how far Canberra has come since then. Today, it stands as a thriving metropolis embodying both natural beauty and modernity. This print serves as a reminder of our capacity to imagine and create cities that reflect our aspirations for society's future. It invites us to appreciate the foresight and ingenuity behind urban planning while also acknowledging how these visions evolve over time. In collaboration with Bridgeman Images' Fine Art Finder collection, let us celebrate this historical snapshot that encapsulates both nostalgia for what was envisioned in 1913 and admiration for what has been achieved since
