Artwork Details
printed in ink on support reverse c.: VIEWS OF VICTORIA. / (GENERAL SERIES.) / No. 42. / VIEW OF THE TOWNSHIP OF MT. BLACKWOOD. / The locality which this illustration represents was formerly known as the Blackwood Forest, and has been the / scene, for many years, of considerable mining activity. The shallow alluvial diggings of the early days have given / place to the deep sinking in search of reefs. This scene is characteristic of the wild appearance which many of / the inland townships of Victoria represent.
