    She's at Circular Quay, near Princes Stairs; we are looking south west. See note about buildings at right. 1895 interactive map - alignment of St Philips Church to the left of the hip-roofed building. www.nla.gov.au/apps/cdview?pi=nla.map-rm3443-sd&rgn=0... I wonder what all the rough stone was for? What was being built? Also seen here -

    The hipped-roof building behind features in Arthur Streeton's 'Circular Quay' 1892 - artsearch.nga.gov.au/Detail-LRG.cfm?IRN=47963&View=LRG Almost a reverse view, maybe the fruit-seller is in the painting too . . . ?

    Probably piles of woodblocks to pave the streets. (On a first quick look it appears to be all sandstone, but it isn't) Large bluestone in the foreground, of the type used for kerbing.
  • beachcomber australia said:
    State Library of New South Wales Aha woodblocks! That might provide a date. I did some snooping on Circular Quay woodblocks a few months ago and came up with an 1887 date from this - SMH 16/8/1887 p.7 'News of the Day' Para 4 - trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/28350536
    " WE are informed that arrangements have been made for the continuation of the wood-blocking of Circular Quay, which for some time past has been at a standstill. The portion at the south-east corner, including the frontage to Messrs. Flood and Co.'s wool stores and McMahon's New Bond, and the north-eastern portion, from the Orient Wharf past the Messageries to the Government boat shed, are now under orders for completion without delay.

Concert inside the City Hall Brisbane, Queensland, 1949

from State Library of Queensland

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    Main Auditorium The Main Auditorium was originally known as 'Concert Hall' and was so vast that early performers dubbed it the 'two-acre paddock'. It is the largest single-volume space in the building and its circular design with fluted pilasters around the perimeter is based on the Pantheon of Rome. The walls of the auditorium have large, fluted Corinthian pilasters, in keeping with the Corinthian columns on the front facade. A decorative frieze runs above the stage, with artwork by Daphne Mayo. The frieze is molded plaster and features a classically-inspired design of nymphs playing trumpets and cymbals. Source: www.brisbane.qld.gov.au/things-to-see-and-do/council-venu...
