EDITORS COMMENTS
This lantern slide depicts Sir Henry Parkes, an esteemed statesman and politician, during the late 19th century. Sir Henry Parkes, K.C.B (1815-1896) is recognized as the Father of Australian Federation due to his significant contributions to the political landscape of the young nation. Born in England, Parkes immigrated to New South Wales, Australia, in 1839, and quickly established himself as a prominent figure in colonial politics. The photograph was taken in Sydney, the most populous city in Australia and the state capital of New South Wales. Situated on the south-east coast of the Tasman Sea, Sydney has served as the cultural and economic hub of the country since its inception. The image captures the essence of the city's rich history, with its bustling streets and architectural wonders reflecting the blending of European and Indigenous influences. Sir Henry Parkes played a pivotal role in shaping the political future of Australia. He advocated for the federation of the Australian colonies, which culminated in the historic Constitutional Convention held in Sydney in 1891. The successful implementation of the federation led to the establishment of the Commonwealth of Australia in 1901. This evocative lantern slide, part of the Boswell Collection (slide number 20), offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when visionary leaders like Sir Henry Parkes shaped the destiny of a young nation. The image is believed to have been captured during the 1890s, making it an invaluable document of Australian history.
