- Circular Quay from Dawes Battery, 1873
Product Description
This view from Dawes Battery, past Campbell's Wharf to Circular Quay, can be dated to early-mid September 1873, as the Haddon Hall from London is loading for San Francisco. Behind it is Aviemore and the ship in the background, in front of Customs House, is La Hogue. Both Aviemore and La Hogue left for London on 13 September 1873. Sadly, this must be one of the last photographs taken by Merlin. He contracted pneumonia and died a fortnight later, aged 43, on 27 September 1873.
