Coeur


David Moore's photograph entitled 'Migrants arriving in Sydney' depicts European migrants arriving in Sydney as the ship, the Galileo Galilei, berthed at the overseas terminal at Circular Quay, Sydney in 1966.

The faces of the people in the photograph display a mixture of emotions. It is a moving portrait capturing the hopes and fears of people spanning several generations. They are coming to the end of a long sea-voyage and are about to start a new life in a foreign land.
