EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of Tessellated Pavement in Launceston, Tasmania, captured by The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online. This vintage photograph, likely taken during the Victorian or Edwardian era, showcases the unique geological formation that has made Tasmania's north-west coast a popular destination for nature lovers and geology enthusiasts alike. The Tessellated Pavement, located in the Bay of Fires Conservation Area, is a stunning natural wonder characterized by its intricately patterned, hexagonal basalt columns. These columns were formed through a process of cooling and contraction of the volcanic lava flow, resulting in the distinctive interlocking pattern that resembles a mosaic or tessellated floor. The photograph's warm, sepia tones and soft focus evoke a sense of nostalgia and wonder, transporting us back to an era when exploration and discovery were at the forefront of human curiosity. The addition of the vintage lantern in the foreground adds a touch of whimsy and intrigue, as if inviting us to embark on our own journey of discovery. This image is not only a beautiful representation of the natural beauty of Tasmania, but also a reminder of the importance of preserving our natural wonders for future generations to enjoy. The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection continues to provide us with a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the world around us in a new light.
