Melbourne, 1862
Pictures by Henry Burn and Albert Charles Cooke
Henry Burn's tinted lithograph looks north from Princes Bridge into young Melbourne, with a towered church, a wooden fence and a mother and child out walking under a soft grey sky. Founded in 1835, the city grew at astonishing speed after gold was found in Victoria in 1851. For someone who loves Melbourne or calls it home.
