Photograph, Anglo-Australasian Photographic Company, Fern Bridge Gully, Black Spur, c. 1876
Nicholas Caire was born on Guernsey in the Channel Islands in 1837. He arrived in Adelaide with his parents in about 1860. In 1867, following photographic journeys in Gippsland, he opened a studio in Adelaide. From 1870 to 1876 he lived and worked in Talbot in Central Victoria. In 1876 he purchased T. F. Chuck's studios in the Royal Arcade Melbourne. In 1885, following the introduction of dry plate photography, he began a series of landscape series, which were commercially successful. As a photographer, he travelled extensively through Victoria, photographing places few of his contemporaries had previously seen. He died in 1918. Reference: Jack Cato, 'Caire, Nicholas John (1837–1918)', Australian Dictionary of Biography.An original, rare photograph from the series 'Views of Victoria: General Series' by the photographer, Nicholas Caire (1837-1918). The series of 60 photographs that comprise the series was issued c. 1876 and reinforced a neo-Romantic view of the Australian landscape to which a growing nationalist movement would respond. Nicholas Caire was active as a photographer in Australia from 1858 until his death in 1918. His vision of the Australian bush and pioneer life had a counterpart in the works of Henry Lawson and other nationalist poets, authors and painters.Views of Victoria (General Series), No.22 / ‘Fern Bridge Gully, Black Spur’ / Albumen silver photograph mounted on boardInscription on reverse: 'Fern Bridge Gully is situated near the summit of the Black Spur, about two miles from Fernshawe. Here the foliage is exceedingly dense, so much so as to exclude daylight in many places. This stream has derived its name from the fact of the Bridge having been constructed of large massive fern tree. The stream which flows beneath the Bridge is one of the sources of the River Watt.’nicholas caire (1837-1918), australia - landscape photography -

Numerous splitters and wood-cutters obtain lucrative employment in the production of laths and firewood. Near the summit of the range are several summer residences belonging to Melbourne merchants.’nicholas caire (1837-1918), australia - landscape photography -
