EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1901, offering a glimpse into the copper mines of Walhalla, a small town in Victoria, Australia. The creator of this remarkable image remains unknown, but their work captures an aerial view of this bustling mining community during its peak years. Walhalla was originally established as a gold-mining settlement in late 1862 and eventually became home to approximately 4,000 residents. This photograph showcases the village's rich history and industrial prowess. The landscape is dotted with various structures that served as essential components of the mining industry at the time. Intriguingly, amidst the backdrop of deforestation caused by extensive extraction activities, we can spot a horse-drawn carriage crossing one of several bridges connecting different parts of Walhalla. These background people add depth to the scene and provide insight into daily life within this mineral-rich region. The elevated perspective allows us to appreciate both the vastness and intricacy of this mining village. It serves as a testament to Australia's thriving industry during that era while also highlighting the environmental impact on its surrounding countryside. As we gaze upon this historic print from "Federated Australia" published by The Werner Company in London, we are transported back in time—a reminder of how far our society has come since then.
