Evening crowds on George Street in Sydney, the Hunter Valley vineyards and Hargraves discovering gold are among the Australian subjects in these prints by William Thomas Smedley, published in 1888. Smedley (1858–1920) was an American illustrator who travelled to Australia in the mid-1880s. Sydney's botanical gardens and Hyde Park and Melbourne's Carlton Gardens add public parks to the city scenes, and a vineyard near Singleton represents rural industry.
