This is one of the earliest street scenes in #Adelaide - from 1840. It's in Hindley St where the Grand Chancellor is now. (From #StateLibraryNSW collection.)
These are among the early #SouthAustralia works by #S_T_Gill. This new article accompanies the early narrative I've just added to the project. #1840s #colonialArtAU #catalogueRaisonne

CW: 1840s artwork Frontier Wars
Last week I got to research at #StateLibraryNSW Sydney.
An artwork I "reidentified" is "The Avengers" by #S_T_Gill showing colonists about to fire on a group of #Aboriginal people. I date this to about 1844/1845 - a decade before his previous earliest known of this subject. #frontierWars #1840s #colonialArtAU

Genius or charlatan? The strange tale of a 19th-century polymath who left a trail of controversy across colonial Australia.
