EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Sunlight Soap Company's Works, located near Sydney, Australia. Taken by an English photographer in the 19th century, this print showcases the industrial beauty of this iconic establishment. The image portrays a sprawling complex with towering chimneys billowing smoke into the sky. The intricate details of the architecture are highlighted in stark contrast against the dark backdrop. It is evident that great care was taken to capture every nuance of this impressive structure. The Sunlight Soap Company's Works played a significant role in Australian history as it was one of Messrs Lever Brothers' most prominent factories. This photograph serves as a testament to their dedication and success in manufacturing soap products during that era. Originally featured as an illustration for "Glimpses of Australia" published by Werner Company around 1895, this print holds historical value and offers us a glimpse into Australia's industrial past. Now preserved within a private collection, this rare piece allows us to appreciate both its artistic merit and its contribution to our understanding of early photography techniques. Its inclusion in Look and Learn ensures that it continues to inspire audiences today.
