In this iconic photograph, Karl Monaghan masterfully captures the enduring charm of a working shack on Andrews Jetty, nestled on Basile Island in the Pelsaert Group.

Basile Island, named after the Dutch East India Company official, Francisco Pelsaert’s flagship Batavia’s skipper, Jeronimus Cornelisz’s servant Pieter Basile, carries a rich tapestry of history.
