Summary edit

Description
English: This image depicts an almost complete Sydney Harbour Bridge. The bridge's pylons appear incomplete. The photograph was possibly taken from Holtermann's Tower, which is now Sydney Church of England Grammar School in North Sydney. The 27-metre tower was commissioned by gold miner, businessman and politician Bernhardt Otto Holtermann in 1874, to pursue his great passion - photography.

This photo is part of the Australian National Maritime Museum’s Samuel J. Hood Studio collection. Sam Hood (1872-1953) was a Sydney photographer with a passion for ships. His 60-year career spanned the romantic age of sail and two world wars. The photos in the collection were taken mainly in Sydney and Newcastle during the first half of the 20th century.
The ANMM undertakes research and accepts public comments that enhance the information we hold about images in our collection. This record has been updated accordingly.
