Photograph, Anglo-Australasian Photographic Company, The Old Crossing-Place at Fernshawe, c. 1876
... The Old Crossing-Place at Fernshawe ...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.Albumen silver photograph mounted on boardInscription on reverse: ‘In the distance among the foliage can be seen the New Bridge across the River Watt. Previous to its erection, the only means of crossing over to the township was across the fallen trees, which are of prodigious dimensions. The River, as may be seen, is very rapid, and, though shallow, it contains a great quantity of fish of a somewhat moderate size.’nicholas caire (1837-1918), landscape photography -
