“First Impressions” Artwork, The Rocks, Sydney, NSW, Australia
The sandstone relief sculpture symbolises the origins and settlement of the colony of New South Wales, by depicting elements of Sydney history in the middle of the rocks area. The Rocks is a very popular spot where locals and tourists mingle at the open-air Markets, perusing handmade fashions and street food.
This fairly large sculpture is located at the intersection of Playfair and George Street. It has three sides, with a figure or figures carved into each side. Very popular spot for pictures. Each side represents a particular group of people that established themselves in Sydney early on: The Convicts, The Settlers, and The Soldier.
"First Impressions" was commissioned by the Sydney Cove Redevelopment Authority in 1979.

Santos traumatized by prison! Isn't that the point? Trump could have moved him to a country club prison as he did Ghislaine Maxwell, but let him out instead- a favor to a fellow convict.
