Summary
Observatory, Wickham Terrace, Brisbane, Queensland, ca. 1908.
The old windmill observatory on Wickham Terrace, Brisbane, around 1908. Four flags are flying on the mast in front of the mill. A lamp post and telegraph pole can be seen on the opposite corner. Copied from a postcard, the back of which reads: 'Dear Sister, Just a P.C. to let you know I am still in the land of the living and in stale old Brisbane. I am not settled but will write when I am as I am not sure when I will be going away. Tomorrow is your birthday and I sincerely wish you very many happy returns of the day and trust you are enjoying the best of health. I must conclude with -?. Best love to you all. You will get my address from Alex. I had a letter from Eva last week. Hope you will like the card. I remain your loving sister, Lilly.'.
This collection as well as all massive collections on Picryl.com required two steps: First, we picked a manually curated set to train AI vision to recognize windmills, and after that, we run image recognition through all 25M+ images in our database. All media in the collection is in the public domain. There is no limitation on the dataset usage - educational, scientific, or commercial.
