EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the charming city of Launceston in Tasmania, circa 1880. Captured by Howard Willoughby and published by the Religious Tract Society in London in 1886, this lithograph showcases the beauty of Australian landscapes during the late 19th century. From a birds-eye view, we are treated to an aerial perspective of Launceston's picturesque town nestled along the banks of the Tamar River. The image transports us to a time when life moved at a slower pace, where horse-drawn carriages traversed its streets and grand Victorian-era buildings stood tall. The details captured in this photograph are truly remarkable; one can almost hear the bustling sounds of daily life echoing through time. The winding river gracefully meanders through the cityscape, reflecting sunlight onto its tranquil waters. It is as if nature itself has become an integral part of this vibrant urban tapestry. As we gaze upon this historical gem from our private collection, it serves as a reminder that even amidst progress and change, there is always something timeless about certain places. Launceston's rich history and natural beauty continue to captivate visitors today just as they did over a century ago. This stunning piece offers not only an insight into Australia's past but also invites us to appreciate how cities evolve while retaining their unique charm.
