Coastal Cliffs of Port Jackson and Governor's Stables in Sydney, New South Wales

About the Item

Title: Coastal Cliffs of Port Jackson and Governor's Stables in Sydney, New South Wales Description: This lithograph, circa 1836, offers two contrasting scenes from New South Wales, capturing the natural and architectural highlights of the region during Dumont d'Urville’s expedition aboard the Astrolabe. The upper panel portrays the rugged coastal cliffs of Port Jackson, with sailing ships navigating the choppy waters. The dramatic rock formations and turbulent sea emphasize the untamed beauty of the Australian coastline, while the distant ships hint at the bustling maritime activity characteristic of this era. The lower panel shifts focus to Sydney, showcasing the elegant Governor's stables surrounded by a serene landscape. The building's symmetrical design and arched windows reflect colonial architecture, symbolizing European influence on the settlement. In the foreground, a horse-drawn carriage and riders add a lively touch, highlighting the blend of pastoral tranquility and urban sophistication. Created by Louis Auguste de Sainson and included in Brodtmann's *Entdeckungs, Reise der Franzosischen Corvette Astrolabe*, this artwork captures the diverse landscapes and colonial advancements observed during the voyage. Condition Report: Marginal foxing and light toning, with minimal edge wear. Both panels remain clean, with excellent detail and tonal contrast. Overall in very good condition.
