235 x 180 mm. An almost identical photograph to Y3085B/2, but taken nearer to Breakfast Creek, and showing the bridge across the Creek. The extent of building out from Brisbane in the intervening years can be seen.

460 x 175 mm. A panoramic photograph consisting of two prints. A view looking towards the river and showing the side on which most of the building and commerce was taking place.

A view showing the British consultate a small wooden bungalow set among palm trees in its own garden. Print number 36.

185 x 133 mm. A view showing a small bungalow set on a low hill, with two women standing on the verandah. The flag pole in front of the house confirms an official function, although by 1899 this building was not the consulate (see Y309993A/36 for a photograph of the British Consulate during the war of 1899, a picture from another part of Wilfred Powell’s collection).

139 x 95 mm. A view showing a wooden bungalow with a raised verandah. As in Y309B/27 a flag pole announces the official status of the house, although this is a different building to that in Y309B/27, and is set among palm trees. From his correspondence it is clear that Powell moved several times during his stay in Samoa. The surrounding area looks very similar to that in Y309993A/36, although the building is different, or has been altered.

135 x 101 mm. Another view of the house seen in Y309B/29, with figures standing on the verandah.

141 x 103 mm. A view of the bungalow featured in Y309B/29-30 with figures standing on the balcony.
