From an upstairs room in the building on the right, the First & Last Hotel (an earlier building to the Tooths collection one), Charles Conder painted this same view in 1888.

O M G ! - the more you look the more you find - I have a strong suspicion that the black ship at an angle on the left IS the SS Orient. Comparison photo (not easy with all those masts, spars, and cranes): nla.gov.au/nla.pic-vn4404564 That particular wharf is called the "Orient Wharf" on the 1890 Sydney map (zoomable) - www.nla.gov.au/apps/cdview?pi=nla.map-rm1280-s1-sd&rg...

There is also a bit of useful history of SS Orient here, including two good views: www.laird-bogstown.com/orient 1.php I think beachcomberaustralia has a good chance of being correct and that the ship at left could be SS Orient. On the topic of the Orient Line Wharf, you can see another reverse view of the wharf here: www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/2362647029/

Good stuff, lifeasdaddy. I see that first site you mention also has a ticket from 1888 - it cost 16 pounds and 16 shillings Third Class, London to Australia - www.laird-bogstown.com/orient 2.php Great ship, great painting, and now this great photograph. Trifecta!

Another later (?) photo of the SS Orient (if I am not mistaken) without spars for some reason, at the same wharf but turned around. www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/3041761855/
