EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Snowy Mountains near the site of the Federal Capital" takes us on a journey through time to Australia's rich history. Created by Percy F. S. Spence in the early 20th century, this colour lithograph captures the breathtaking beauty of the Snowy Mountains. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported to an era when agriculture and farming played a vital role in shaping Australia's identity. The vast expanse of land depicted here speaks volumes about the resilience and determination of those who tamed these rugged terrains. The presence of sheep grazing peacefully amidst such majestic scenery reminds us of the importance of livestock farming in this region. It is a testament to how humans have harmoniously coexisted with nature for centuries, utilizing its resources while preserving its integrity. Moreover, this artwork holds historical significance as it was originally created as an illustration for Frank Fox's book "Australia". It serves as a visual representation of Australia's quest for nationhood during that period. With every brushstroke and vibrant color choice, Spence masterfully captures both the grandeur and tranquility found within these snowy peaks. This print not only celebrates Australian landscapes but also pays homage to their cultural heritage. Incorporating elements from agriculture, farming, ranching, and history into one frame allows viewers to appreciate multiple facets of Australian life at that time. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection today, let us reflect on our connection with nature and acknowledge
