– Selected images of the Opera House construction –

 

Max voluntarily visited the construction site of the Opera House to record its construction from the late 1950s through to its completion in 1973. He was welcomed to do this by Danish Jorn Utzon, the primary architect of the building. The selection here captures the place of the construction, Bennelong Point, once a tramway depot from before any construction works all the way through to first concerts in 1973. As we do not have hi-res file for most of these images, a search of the archive is required, subject to copyright approval. So if you are interested in any of the following images, just make an enquiry on the contact form.
