EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving titled "Twenty Years Station Life in New South Wales, I" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the rugged and adventurous lifestyle of Australian settlers. The image showcases a vibrant scene filled with various elements that define station life in New South Wales. In the foreground, we witness skilled stockmen taking charge of fat cattle, skillfully branding them for identification. A native black man stands nearby, representing the diverse cultural landscape of Australia during this era. Disabled stockman bravely navigates through the chaos on his horse as he assists in managing the livestock. The bustling market is depicted further back, where colts are being stalked by eager buyers while racehorses and ponies add an element of excitement to the atmosphere. In contrast, emus stampede across the plains as cowboys lasso one down—an exhilarating display of capturing wild emeus. The vastness of Australian agriculture is evident with horses pulling a runway bullock team transporting cattle from one location to another. This engraving beautifully captures not only farm animals but also wildlife indigenous to Australia. Overall, "Twenty Years Station Life in New South Wales, I" provides an immersive experience into early Australian farming practices and highlights both human resilience and harmony with nature—a testament to the rich history and heritage that shaped modern-day Australia.
