    That must have been an official visit - these jackets wouldn't last long in this environment...
  • Jim Griffin said:
    Fine photo, but I agree that the white jackets would not stay white long in the mine.
  • Swordscookie said:
    Lovley white jackets, those guys went down there to work??? A naked flame as well which must have been risky.

    Mosman Bay (Sydney Harbour) looking north from near what is now the sailing club (Smith's boat shed) at the corner of Kareela Road / Green Street, Cremorne Point ? A quarter turn away from this view: www.flickr.com/photos/powerhouse_museum/3129029289/in/set... ?

    Interesting to compare this to Arthur Streeton's The Point Wharf, Mosman Bay, 1893 at this link (scroll down to SYDNEY) : www.ngv.vic.gov.au/australianimpressionism/education/insi... www.ngv.vic.gov.au/australianimpressionism/education/imag...

    That is a wonderful picture (Streeton is famous for blue), lifeasdaddy, from roughly the same place as this photograph, but looking 90 degrees to the right. The painting is of Curraghbeena point, where the Musgrave Street wharf now is. I think it was a sandstone quarry at the time of the picture, and the ferry wharf is just out of sight to the left. Streeton painted the other wharf in 1895 - www.artsender.com/gallery/details.asp?PaintingID=430 Both wharfs show up clearly on Google maps (satellite), which is invaluable in these investigations. This is fairly near the photo view but higher up the ridge of Cremorne Point: www.flickr.com/photos/patopostcards/2213485419/ I should get down to Sydney myself and snoop around with my camera. I am in Port Macquarie and relying on memories of living around Cremorne and Mosman.
