Baby and a dog on a sailing ship (c 1910)
Photographer: Samuel J Hood | Australian National Maritime Collection: 00023789
Between 1900 and the 1950s, Sydney photographer Samuel J Hood took hundreds of photographs of ships and their crew for souvenirs of their visit or to send home to families. This photograph depicts a baby and a dog sitting on top of a deckhouse of a ship. The child may have been part of the captain's family living on board the ship, which was not uncommon in this era.
The Samuel J Hood collection records an extensive range of maritime activity on Sydney Harbour. Hood was regarded as an important figure in early Australian photojournalism. Hood's maritime photographs are one of the most significant collections of such work in Australia.
