Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This photograph depicts a closeup of the foremast of HMS HOOD on 13 April 1924. Frederick Wilkinson took this image from a ferry while travelling on Sydney Harbour. HOOD was flagship of the Royal Navy's Special Service Squadron from 1923 to 1924.

Frederick Wilkinson (1901 - 1975) migrated to Australia from England in 1911. While working various jobs in and around central Sydney, Wilkinson acquired a camera and began taking photographs of vessels and harbour scenes. Many of his images were used by commercial photographers for souvenir postcards.
The ANMM undertakes research and accepts public comments that enhance the information we hold about images in our collection. This record has been updated accordingly.
