    Wonderful photo. The large size shows terrific detail. Later than 1903 due to the wharf at Millers Point (see note). There are some real gems turning up in the Williams F & J Hall collection.

    beachcomber australia Ah thanks again beachcomber, another useful piece of information. We love the WJ & WF Hall collection, & there are many more gems to share.

    There's a pre-1914 painting of almost this view by CES Tindall (1863-1951) 'From Berry's Bay' in the AGNSW - www.artgallery.nsw.gov.au/collection/works/26/ . It must be almost contemporary with this photo.

    beachcomber australia What a beautiful painting, I wonder what that red-building is at a height on the left? Funny timing you commenting on this post again - the lovely steam yacht ENA has arrived at our wharves in the last few days. Her covers come off at midday if you're around!

    beachcomber australia Hi Beachcomber, not sure what vessel is being launched in this image - but quite possibly SYDNEY as most of the spectators seem to be standing here. There are quite a few articles in Trove re the launching of ships from this yard...
  • Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons said:
    donnnnnny Hi Donny, Lavender Bay is one bay over - to the east. In fact both bays just make it into this map that Beachcomber drew to our attention yesterday!

    Australian National Maritime Museum on The Commons Yes the name 'Sydney' is not narrow enough for searches - naturally! The Graeme Andrews 'Ferries of Sydney' book makes no mention of one actually called "Sydney". I am presuming she was a ferry - double ended, bench seats upstairs, etc, like the inner harbour ferries 'Lady' class (p.92 of the book). There are two (Sydney I and II) listed on the FerriesOfSydney website but no details - ferriesofsydney.com/ferries.html (glad to see this excellent site back online again - it was MIA for couple of years)
