The clean modernist colonnades of Australia's National Library rise in pristine white above the glassy surface of Lake Burley Griffin in Canberra, their reflection shimmering in warm pinks and blues in this crisp chrome-era card — a postcard portrait of a building that had only just opened its doors in 1968, making this a near-contemporary souvenir of one of Australia's most celebrated postwar civic buildings. Designed by architects Bunning & Madden and opened by Queen Elizabeth II on 15 August 1968, the library's classical modernist colonnade deliberately echoes the Parthenon while housing one of the Southern Hemisphere's great research collections. Published by Nu-Color-Vue of Australia with their signature deckle edges, this card is unused, unstamped, and in excellent condition — a fine example of 1960s Australian architectural postcard photography.
