| Description |
English: Brisbane floods, 1893.
Spectacular sight showing the extent of flooding in the Botanical Gardens and Alice Street. The fountain in the gardens can be seen reflected in the floodwaters. Across the torrent of water of the Brisbane River are Kangaroo Point and New Farm. Poul C. Poulsen, founder of the Poulsen Studios in Brisbane, was born in Denmark in 1857 and arrived in Sydney in 1876. In 1882, he moved to Queensland and was later joined by his sisters and brothers from Denmark. He opened his own studio at no 7 Queen Street in 1885 and later opened branches, run by his brothers in other Queensland towns. Poulsen vigorously advertised constant improvements and modernisation in his studio and in the service he provided. His sons and grandson followed in his footsteps. |
