| Object history | Frank Hurley was official photographer and cinematographer to the British, Australian and New Zealand Antarctic Research Expeditions. He bought this camera before he left for his third Antarctic trip in 1929. It accompanied him from Antarctica to the Middle East and was also used to record important events in Australia, such as the building of Sydney Harbour Bridge. From the 1880s to the 1920s, professional Australian photographers such as Hurley created an extensive record of urban and rural life in eastern Australia and developed highly successful businesses producing and selling portraits, landscape views and news and event photographs as prints, postcards and stereo cards. These photographers also exhibited overseas and imported views of the world for Australian consumption, including Hurley's photographs of Antarctica. Through these practices, photographers shaped both Australians' understanding of and interest in their own social and natural environments, and Australians' perception of their place in the world. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
