EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of Kingston, Norfolk Island, a historic Georgian village that stands as a fully restored colonial outpost of the British Empire from the era of convict transportation. The intricate architecture and coastal features tell a story of hardship and resilience, as this village was built by convicts under cruel supervision.
Despite its dark past, Kingston is now a peaceful world heritage listed area that exudes tranquility and charm. The tranquil scene depicted in this panoramic shot showcases the idyllic beauty of this remote island in the South Pacific Ocean.
The sandstone buildings stand as a testament to the history of colonialism in this region, while also serving as architectural features that add to the allure of Kingston. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Kingston holds immense cultural significance and attracts travelers from around the globe who are eager to explore its rich history.
This photograph by Southern Lightscapes-Australia perfectly captures the essence of Kingston's unique blend of history and natural beauty. It serves as a reminder of how far this once-prisoner-built village has come, now standing proudly as an iconic destination in Australasia's Pacific Islands.
