Notes

Charles Kerry (1858 -1928) started out in photography in a carte-de-viste business in Sydney specialising in scenic views of rural and urban Australia. He went on to establish Kerry & Co. in 1892 and by the late 1890s had become the eminent photographic studio in Sydney. By 1910 his studio was Australia’s largest publisher of postcards which although they were produced in commercial quantities have become iconic collectables through the years. His 1908 photographs of the Burns v Johnson World Heavyweight Boxing Match at Sydney’s Rushcutters Bay brought him international acclaim, but it is his studio portraits of Aborigines and their rites of passage that are his emblematic works. These studies were produced from the 1890s through to 1917.
