Probably Mosman Bay in Sydney. It looks very like Tom Roberts' painting www.smh.com.au/news/arts/back-to-the-wellspring-of-inspir...

It is interesting that this photo is earlier than the 1894 Roberts painting, probably about 1887 / 88 (?) like many of Henry King's photos. "Lewis's Refreshment Rooms" had not yet been painted on the roof; the ugly black sign in the middle of the painting (and the Phillips photo c.1895) is not yet there; the building at right (now the Scout Hall) looks semi-derelict etc etc. For quick reference - [https://www.flickr.com/photos/repolco/8643198351/]

Wonderful! The railings are not yet built (see note), so earlier than the Phillips Collection photo. GoogleMapsStreetView has improved considerably for this spot since I last looked nearly four years ago.

Andy Brill Please forgive my youthful exuberance and excitement on the comments of the Phillips photo - it was identifying that particular Phillips image location which first hooked me into these old photos. Oh dear ... !

beachcomber australia pellethepoet Excellent contribution. Your research, with bob meade, has greatly expanded the historical record and context.
