The barque is in ballast, as evidenced by the low waterline, and is likely to have discharged its cargo in Blackwattle or Rozelle Bay. As a result, this photograph was probably taken shortly after its arrival in December 1926. This photo is part of the Australian National Maritime Museum’s Samuel J. Hood Studio collection. Sam Hood (1872-1953) was a Sydney photographer with a passion for ships. His 60-year career spanned the romantic age of sail and two world wars. The photos in the collection were taken mainly in Sydney and Newcastle during the first half of the 20th century.
