printed in ink on support reverse c.: VIEWS OF VICTORIA. / (GENERAL SERIES.) / No. 45. / SCENE IN THE JIM CROW RANGES. / The Great Dividing Range of mountains takes its rise from the Grampian Hills, in the Western District of / Victoria, and continues its course throughout the entire length of the Colony, until it joins the Great Australian / Alps, near the borders of New South Wales, which terminate in the Snowy River Mountains. The scenery to be / found among these Ranges, which extend nearly 500 miles in length, is mostly peculiar to the various districts and / ranges, owing to its geological formation or volcanic disturbances. Our present illustration is one of the many to / be found in the Jim Crow Ranges, between Mts. Blowhard and Macedon.
