Description:
Chinese immigrants came in large numbers with the discovery of gold at Palmer River Queensland in 1872 and were checked for signs of small pox before being allowed to disembark. On 10 October 1881 the ship struck Fish Reef near Darwin and sank without loss of life.
Very rare engraving from the original edition of The Illustrated Sydney News,
which was published from 1854 to 1889 and included a number of high
quality engravings in each issue. Each engraved illustration would take
an engraver between one and two weeks to make.
