Burra Homestead

Transport yourself to a bygone era with Burra Homestead (Print ) ~ 2019, a poignant depiction of history frozen in time. Captured by Jaime Dormer, this hauntingly beautiful photograph portrays an abandoned homestead sitting quietly amidst the sweeping, green fields of Burra, South Australia. Set against a backdrop of rolling hills under an expansive blue sky, the solitary farmhouse seems to tell stories of generations past—of milking cows at dawn, children running down the hallway, and the comforting sound of rainstorms bringing life to the surrounding farmland.

"If walls could talk I have to imagine the tales this old farmhouse sitting on Burra's doorstep could tell. Left behind from a time when milking your cow before breakfast and riding your horse to school, were a life we dreamed of. How many children ran down your passageway letting the screen door slam? How many storms have rolled across your rooftop bringing life-giving rain to your remote location and beaming smiles to farmers' faces?

Sitting silently nestled in on your field of shooting crops, rain clouds rolling over the gentle sweeping hills at your back, you sit and watch the world passing by. Winds ruffle your grassy surrounds in waves of rolling green beauty while you sit and stare, perhaps hoping to be inhabited once more by a loving family, to once again feel warm smoke billow out your silent chimneys, is it that picture of which you dream?"

Framing the Image

Frame Details:
The photograph is presented in an elegant, contemporary frame designed to elevate and preserve the artwork. It is encased in a prestige white Majorca moulding, complemented by clarity UV70 glass to ensure protection against light exposure. The use of double acid-free white matting, accented by a Dawsons hand-made dark oaka linen and a silver fillet, provides a refined contrast that enhances the photograph’s vivid colors and depth.

The image is printed on Hahnemühle Photo Rag 308gsm, a museum-quality 100% cotton paper that brings out the photograph's rich tones and details. To protect and maintain the integrity of the print, three coatings of Hahnemühle protective surface spray have been meticulously applied in a crosshatch pattern.
