Antique Lithograph of George Street, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia - c.1836
About the Item
Title: View of George Street, Sydney, New South Wales
Description: This lithograph, circa 1836, captures a quiet moment on George Street, one of Sydney's central thoroughfares in New South Wales. The scene offers a glimpse into colonial life during the early 19th century, with a mix of residential and public buildings lining the street. The architectural styles reflect European influence, with verandas, wide windows, and a sense of orderliness in the developing urban landscape.
Figures populate the street, including elegantly dressed pedestrians, military personnel, and townsfolk going about their day. A veranda in the foreground frames the composition, with two individuals leisurely engaged, contrasting with the bustling activity of the distant harbor, where ships' masts rise above the buildings.
The artwork reflects both the burgeoning sophistication of Sydney as a colonial hub and the ongoing development of its infrastructure. Created by Louis Auguste de Sainson during Dumont d'Urville’s expedition, this lithograph was reproduced in Brodtmann’s *Entdeckungs, Reise der Franzosischen Corvette Astrolabe*. It serves as a valuable historical record of Sydney’s early days as a settlement.
