As I compare is cartography work to a topographical map I found online, it would seem he did a pretty decent job, considering he had to sail/walk around it to get a good idea.

Hello! We'd love you to add this photo to the National Maritime Museum's group Travellers' Tails. www.flickr.com/groups/nmm_travellers/rules/ This group has been set up to collate photographic responses to the exhibition The Art and Science of Exploration: 1768-80 at the National Maritime Museum and touring to the Grant Museum of Zoology, the Captain Cook Memorial Museum, the Hunterian Museum and Horniman Museum and Gardens. The exhibition aims to explore Captain Cook’s voyages of discovery, as well as the exchange of ideas and experiences around travel and exploration and investigate key questions around the history of art, science and exploration and what this means today, drawing on George Stubbs’ Enlightenment era paintings of a kangaroo and dingo, recently acquired by the National Maritime Museum. We’d love to see your photographs - please help us build a gallery of images to enrich the group! Thanks! www.flickr.com/groups/nmm_travellers/rules/

This monument to Captain James Cook (1728-1779) who first landed in Australia in the area, is located in the northeastern sector of Hyde Park. The statue was erected to commemorate Captain Cook's discovery of the east coast of Australia in 1770. The sculptor was Thomas Woolner (1825-1892) and the statue was cast by Cox & Sons, at its Thames Ditton Foundry, Surrey, England. —Wikipedia

At least we know this photo was taken in 1892-3, which might help as a yardstick when trying to date all the other photos of the statue. I am (still) very fond of this irreverent description of the statue's history - www.publicartaroundtheworld.com/Captain_Cook_Statue_Sydne...
