EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white wood engraving captures a pivotal moment in history - the landing of Captain James Cook at Botany Bay, New South Wales, Australia in 1770. As depicted by Andrew Garran's skilled hand, this print from the Picturesque Atlas of Australasia transports us back to the 18th century, where we witness Cook proclaiming New South Wales as a British possession. The image showcases the grandeur of naval exploration and colonial expansion. The majestic sailing ship Endeavour dominates the scene, symbolizing Britain's dominance on the high seas. In his distinguished naval uniform, Captain Cook stands tall on landfall with his landing party beside him. This visual narrative evokes a sense of adventure and discovery that characterized this era. The surrounding nature adds depth to the composition; lush plants and towering trees frame this historic event. It is impossible not to ponder upon how these lands were perceived by both explorers and indigenous peoples during this time.

It invites viewers to reflect on our shared history while acknowledging its impact on Indigenous communities. As we gaze upon this remarkable print from 1886, let us appreciate its artistic beauty while contemplating its historical significance – an enduring testament to Captain James Cook's voyage that forever changed the course of Australian history.
