About the Photograph 

Echuca Wharf, located along the Murray River, played a pivotal role in Australia’s river trade boom of the 19th century. Built in stages between 1864 and 1884, this historic structure stretched 332 metres to accommodate the demands of a booming pastoral industry.

Dormer’s photograph beautifully showcases the golden hues of the wharf at sunset, reflecting on the calm Murray waters and capturing the intricate wooden architecture that stands as a testament to Australia’s rich economic past.

"Echuca Wharf tells a story of resilience and progress. Capturing its quiet grandeur in the evening light felt like stepping back in time, where echoes of bustling trade linger on the river breeze."

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.
