    Looks like an UNmounted horseman to me.
  • Angie C said:
    I noticed that as well :)

    Perhaps DISmounted ?

    The persistent URL is now a dud...sometimes... trove.nla.gov.au/work/247382083 - Trove link to version at PHM... trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/228844645 - the Sun, 20th October, 1912...pic of the AMP Building nearing completion...

This tower was demolished in the earlier 20th century...but I haven't yet managed to establish a date... trove.nla.gov.au/work/244641928 - this City of Sydney Archives pic of Her Majesty's Theatre shows the Pitt St facade of the Imperial Arcade with the tower... Also see this (? later) pic which shows the AMP building nearing completion and a building site where the New Zealand Insurance Building was to appear...it shows the later style street light... www.flickr.com/photos/anmm_thecommons/8615355732/ trove.nla.gov.au/work/190055464 - this NLA Fairfax pic...taken from further to the South...shows how things looked in ca. 1916...with the newly completed Commonweath Bank Building (opposite the GPO) dominating the skyline further along Pitt St...the Commonwealth Bank Building was evidently built in the period 1913-16...
