The Australian Environment: Landscape as Art & Inspiration
AU$50.00 Read MoreAdd to cartSiegfried Manietta
Sydney: T&G Publishing, 2011.“The book covers 30 years of consistent landscape / environmental photography. My work attempts to transcend the standard collectible tourist photograph, looking instead at documenting underlying structures and qualities, choosing the vernacular, carefully designed and imaged in sympathetic light. I believe it represents a more subtle way of seeing, understanding and appreciating our environment. The images are in 3 chapters (+ epilogue) each representing a particular approach to the environment.” (publisher’s blurb)

AU$50.00 Read MoreAdd to cartPeter Elliston
Sydney: T&G Publishing, 2008.“These rare photographs, never published before, present a charming portrait of times gone by, an Australian ambience that no longer exists. The Collection comprises vignettes of family and social life in the years between the first and second world wars in Victoria. The photographs also provide the viewer with an opportunity to see what life was like at that time, the emotional landscapes of cities and towns that are today dramatically altered by the modernisation of life.” (publisher’s blurb)

Cabramatta: A Moment in Time
AU$40.00 Read MoreAdd to cartMarkus Andersen
Sydney: T&G Publishing, 2016.“Cabramatta is not your typical Australian suburb. If you took a stroll through the streets of this south-western Sydney hub, you may feel like you are in Southeast Asia. However, the suburb of Cabramatta is emblematic of modern Australia — urban, busy and brimming with multicultural activity. Sydney photographer Markus Andersen has captured this melting pot of cultures in his distinctive, street photography style. His raw, sometimes playful images show the uniquely diverse and human side of Cabramatta, seizing little moments of beauty in everyday life. A year in the life of one of AustraliaÂ’s most vivid multicultural communities, suspended in the amber of Markus Andersen’s lens.” (publisher’s blurb) This copy signed by Andersen.

Humane Policy; or Justice to the Aborigines of New Settlements
AU$1,200.00 Read MoreAdd to cartS. Bannister
London: Thomas and George Underwood, 1830.Saxe Bannister (1790-1877) was the first Attorney-General of New South Wales, though short-lived in the position due to constant clashing with other figures of the new colony, including over the mistreatment of the Aborigines. Though failing to find content in his work he is noted as being philanthropic and humane in his disposition with “a devotion to the welfare of children, convicts, and coloured inhabitants of the Empire” (ADB). Upon returning to England he authored numerous pamphlets on behalf of indigenous people in the colonies, and this, his longest work on the subject, largely devoted to South Africa, though with numerous references from his time in New South Wales. This copy with the armorial bookplate of Fairclough and the Aborigines Protection Society in manuscript at the crown of the title page.
