Photograph (Gelatine Print) of a Group of Scientists and Others Visiting a Mine at Broken Hill, New South Wales, Including and Probably by N. V. Sidgwick, 1914

Gelatine print. Group portrait of British scientists and their local guides visiting the North Mine at Broken Hill, New South Wales, during the 1914 meeting in Australia of the British Association for the Advancement of Science. They are mostly wearing miner's jackets and hats. Among those present (identified in the inscription on the back) are the geologists A. R. Dwerryhouse and G. W. Lamplugh, and the Oxford chemist N. V. Sidgwick, to whom the photograph belonged and who may well also have taken it.
