Pastoral Remnants

Pastoral Remnants

Step into a bygone era with “Pastoral Remnants,” a hauntingly beautiful print from acclaimed landscape photographer, Karl Monaghan. Evocative of the region’s pastoral history, this piece captures the remains of an old farmhouse, a symbol of the Chapman Valley’s rich agricultural past. These remnants of early settler cottages, once teeming with life and warmth, now stand in quiet solitude amidst the sweeping landscape of the Mid West, imbuing this print with a profound sense of nostalgia and a poignant reminder of the transient nature of human endeavour.

The composition of “Pastoral Remnants” is a testament to Karl Monaghan’s mastery of Australian landscape photography. He has transformed the decaying structure into a monument of resilience against the backdrop of the vast, open expanse of the Chapman Valley. As the sun sets, bathing the scene in a warm, golden light, the abandoned homestead seems to echo with the stories of those who once called it home.

The Chapman Valley, just north of Geraldton, is a region steeped in agricultural history. Early farming settlers carved out a life here, against the dramatic backdrop of the Moresby Ranges and the fertile valleys. This print serves as a tribute to these hardy pioneers, their lives woven into the fabric of Western Australia’s past.
