"Old Bendigo, 1857" is a notable lithograph created by George Rowe, an English artist and lithographer who emigrated to Australia during the mid-19th century. This artwork is a significant historical document, capturing the bustling gold rush town of Bendigo, Victoria, during a period of rapid growth and transformation. The gold rush era, which began in the early 1850s, brought an influx of prospectors, entrepreneurs, and settlers to the region, dramatically altering its landscape and demographics.

George Rowe, born in 1796, was an accomplished artist known for his detailed and evocative depictions of urban and rural scenes. His move to Australia in 1852 was driven by the allure of the gold rush, and he soon became one of the most prominent visual chroniclers of this transformative period in Australian history. Rowe's lithographs are celebrated for their accuracy and attention to detail, providing valuable insights into the architecture, daily life, and social dynamics of the time.

"Old Bendigo, 1857" is particularly esteemed for its intricate portrayal of the township, featuring a panoramic view that encompasses the bustling activity of the goldfields, the emerging infrastructure, and the diverse population that characterized Bendigo during the height of the gold rush. The lithograph serves as both an artistic achievement and a historical record, offering a window into the past and illustrating the profound impact of the gold rush on the development of Bendigo.

Rowe's work is preserved in various collections, including those of the State Library of Victoria and the National Gallery of Australia, where it continues to be studied and appreciated by historians, art enthusiasts, and the general public. "Old Bendigo, 1857" remains a testament to George Rowe's skill as an artist and his contribution to documenting one of the most dynamic periods in Australian history.
