City of Sydney Archives

Cazneaux, Harold

Born in New Zealand and raised in Adelaide, Harold Cazneaux became one of Sydney's pre-eminent photographers, documenting its changing face and different moods.

Sydney Harbour Bridge

The Sydney Harbour Bridge did more than merely unite the two sides of the harbour; it inspired a city and a nation, long before it was even completed. Images of the bridge by Grace Cossington Smith, Henri Mallard and Harold Cazneaux are among the most iconic. While CJ Denis gives us a sentimental view of Sydney's colonial history, Peter Carey's observations of the city and its history focus on a much darker side of the past.
