A steamship and rowing boats at Queen's Wharf, Melbourne, Australia. In the 1850s Queen’s Wharf became the gateway to the goldfields.

From the 'The Melbourne album : containing a series of views of Melbourne & country districts : respectfully dedicated to, and patronized by His Excellency Sir Charles Darling', published by Charles Troedel 1864'.
