This issue A touching part of the FFFAIF tours of the Western Front is when Matt Smith leads a visit to High Tree Cemetery at Montbrehain, where some of the Diggers killed in the last battle fought by the AIF in the war are buried. In this issue, Evan Evans tells the story of this last action and considers whether it was necessary for the exhausted men of the AIF to take part. Andrew Pittaway describes how three soldiers had their burial places identified in Birr Cross Roads Cemetery, while Greg O’Reilly profiles a brave machine-gun officer.

A Comparative Analysis of Artist Prints and Print Collecting at the Imperial War Museum and Australian War M
Bold Impressions: A Comparative Analysis of Artist Prints and Print Collecting at the Imperial War Museum and Australian War Memorial Alexandra Fae Walton A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the Australian National University, June 2017. © Copyright by Alexandra Fae Walton, 2017 DECLARATION PAGE I declare that this thesis has been composed solely by myself and that it has not been submitted, in whole or in part, in any previous application for a degree. Except where stated otherwise by reference or acknowledgement, the work presented is entirely my own. Acknowledgements I was inspired to write about the two print collections while working in the Art Section at the Australian War Memorial. The many striking and varied prints in that collection made me wonder about their place in that museum – it being such a special yet conservative institution in the minds of many Australians. The prints themselves always sustained my interest in the topic, but I was also fortunate to have guidance and assistance from a number of people during my research, and to make new friends. Firstly, I would like to say thank you to my supervisors: Dr Peter Londey who gave such helpful advice on all my chapters, and who saw me through the final year of the PhD; Dr Kylie Message who guided and supported me for the bulk of the project; Dr Caroline Turner who gave excellent feedback on chapters and my final oral presentation; and also Dr Sarah Scott and Roger Butler who gave good advice from a prints perspective. Thank you to Professor Joan Beaumont, Professor Helen Ennis and Professor Diane Davis from the Australian National University (ANU) for making the time to discuss my thesis with me, and for their advice. -

He bought land and set up a farm near Launceston. Glover’s Tasmanian landscapes often showed his liking for the natural bushland, and his interest in the disappearing indigenous peoples who once lived on the land he now owned. This painting shows a summer’s day at Glover’s new farm. A shingle- roofed stone house and wooden studio look out onto his extensive cottage garden full of flowering plants. -

Early Australian Optical and Radio Observations of Centaurus A
Early Australian Optical and Radio Observations of Centaurus A Peter RobertsonA, C, Glen CozensA, Wayne OrchistonA, Bruce SleeA, B and Harry WendtA A Centre for Astronomy, James Cook University, Townsville, QLD 4811, Australia B Australia Telescope National Facility, CSIRO, PO Box 76, Epping, NSW 2121, Australia C Corresponding author. Email: [email protected] Abstract: The discoveries of the radio source Centaurus A and its optical counterpart NGC 5128 were important landmarks in the history of Australian astronomy. NGC 5128 was first observed in August 1826 by James Dunlop during a survey of southern objects at the Parramatta Observatory, west of the settlement at Sydney Cove. The observatory had been founded a few years earlier by Thomas Brisbane, the new governor of the British colony of New South Wales. Just over 120 years later, John Bolton, Gordon Stanley and Bruce Slee discovered the radio source Centaurus A at the Dover Heights field station in Sydney, operated by CSIRO‟s Radiophysics Laboratory (the forerunner of the Australia Telescope National Facility). This paper will describe this early historical work and summarise further studies of Centaurus A by other Radiophysics groups up to 1960. Received 2009 October … Keywords: Centaurus A – NGC 5128 – radio galaxies – history of Australian astronomy – Parramatta Observatory – Radiophysics Laboratory 1 Introduction The radio source Centaurus A and its optical counterpart NGC 5128 comprise possibly the most important astronomical object in the history of Australian astronomy. Observations of the southern sky in Australia are as old as human settlement. There is a growing body of evidence that the importance of astronomical knowledge to Aboriginal culture was far greater than previously thought (see e.g.
