The Rocks, First Impressions, The Settlers

"First Impressions" is a sculpture located in Playfair Street in The Rocks, and created by Bud Dumas in 1979. This sandstone relief is a memorial to the convicts, soldiers and settlers who made up the original settlement at The Rocks. The side of the sculpture shown here features "The Settlers". Australia's first eleven free immigrants landed in Sydney in 1793.
