Nouvelle-Hollande, Nouvelle Galles du Sud, vue de la partie meridionale de la ville de Sydney, capitale des colonies anglaises aux terres australes et de l'embouchure de la riviere de Parramatta 1803

This early view depicts Sydney from the 1802 camp of Baudin's expedition at Bennelong Point. His ship GEOGRAPHE is careened on the shore. Engraved in 1807 after the original work by expedition artist Charles-Alexandre Lesueur, the view shows the state of the colony 20 years after the arrival of Arthur Phillip and the First Fleet in Sydney Cove.
