APPENDIX B:
MEMO. DESCRIPTIVE OF ALTO-RELIEVOS, GENERAL POST OFFICE, PITT-STREET
No.1 - Telegraphy, Literature and the Press
Telegraphy is represented by an operator at work, with his right hand on the instrument, while reading a telegram. On the lower part of the spandrel is a little boy trying to prepare a battery. At a counter a young woman with a pleasant look, writing a message and, in the distance, a mounted messenger, conveying telegrams.
Literature and the Press The former is represented by a-writer or author, in deep thought, seated at a table, writing. The altter by a young printer at a printing machine, who for a moment has stopped work, to notice with amazement a little boy who is reading aloud. In the back ground compositors are seen, employed at their several occupations.
No. 2 - Professions, Commerce and Mining.
Professions are represented by a Judge upon the Bench, reading over his notes; and by a Professor demonstrating some experiment he is engaged upon, while he is noting the time with an hour-glass in his hand, a retort, still, and furnace being near him; a little boy is also seen in the lower part of the spandrel, admiring and examining a butterfly he has caught. In the back ground is a student in deep study.
Commerce and Mining - Commerce is shown by a business man making entries in a note-book; near him are bales of merchandise; 282
a small boy offering fruit for sale; and shipping in the background.
Mining is represented by an experienced digger, pointing with satisfaction to the gold in a lump of quartz, which his son is looking at with pleasure and astonishment.
No.3 - Agriculture and Pastoral Pursuits, Science and Art
Agriculture and Pastoral Pursuits - Agriculture is represented by a ploughman with his plough. The day being nearly over, as shown by the setting sun, he has relaxed work for a few minutes, while with much eagerness he reads a letter. In the lower part of the spandrel is a little girl with flowers. Pastoral pursuits are illustrated by a shearer at work, and by the introduction of cattle and sheep.
Science and Art - Science is represented by an astronomer, who having taken an observation, marks a position on the globe, at the same time pointing to Sydney, shown on a chart, and, in the lower part of the spandrel, by a little boy with a telephone to his ear, listening with astonishment to the sounds produced by this recent application of science. Art is illustrated by a young architect, making a drawing of a building, seen in the distance, intended for the reception of fine arts. A statue is also shown.
No. 4 - Banking, Post Office business
Banking is illustrated by a Bank clerk paying money over a counter to a young woman who is presenting a draft. In the lower corner of the spandrel is a little boy with money in a bag, and
crying because he has lost some of it while bringing it to the
Bank. 283
Post Office business - This is represented by a letter- carrier, heavily laden, as on a mail day, giving to a young woman a letter, which she gladly receives. Below is a little girl reading a letter.
