  Beautiful 🌟 !!!!!!! how did you capture that from Negative ?

• State Library of New South Wales said:

  Hi Jorge - the original glass negative has a black painted mask on the glass to eliminate the background. This turns white when inverted. Expanding the exif information (on the right) gives you the digitisation details. Cheers.

  The house seems to have been replace by the clubhouse of the Golf club.
  
  Edit: looking at entirely the wrong spot!

  Field Marshal, not General, White had quite an interesting career.

  There is another earlier? (better paint) photo, with a distinguished looking fellow seated outside. I wonder if it is Field Marshal Sir George Stuart White, VC, GCB, OM, GCSI, GCMG, GCIE, GCVO (6 July 1835 – 24 June 1912). Wouldn't that be something! - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000336471

  From Wikipedia - " ... White became Governor of Gibraltar in May 1900 and,[34] in that role, was promoted to full general on 9 October 1900 and to field marshal on 8 April 1903. ..."
  Which suggests this photo with reference to "General White" is between October 1900 and April 1903. Perhaps.
