Lighthouse welcome

Saturday 30 December 2006

Just found in the National Library picture collection: a stereo photo of a welcome arch built in Hobart for the 1901 visit of the Duke and Duchess of York. This little object tickles my interest in stereo views, lighthouses, and celebratory arches.

Civic arch, with pylons in the shape of lighthouses
Duke of York celebrations, Hobart. Lighthouse Arch: Rose’s stereoscopic views, No. 3841.
