Myth and Memory: Prints from the Collection
This exhibition features prints made in the late 1800s as illustrations for publications such as The History of Ballarat and The Picturesque Atlas of Australasia.
Shaped by the enduring cultural impact of the gold rush and the Eureka Rebellion, these images extend beyond historical documentation toward romanticised interpretation. These images occupy a highly charged space between remembrance and interpretation, establishing an enduring tension between the preservation of memory and the making of myth.
