015 Research: "Threads of Power"

SLQ Works of Art Collection
Symbolic representation of transport and industries in Queensland, Noel Pascoe Lambert, ca. 1939, Image No. 4678-1v000r001 

A 1939 watercolor painting by Noel Lambert of the then Queensland's Premier William Forgan Smith depicted in a scenario "playing" on the "threads of power", controlling the various industries that coexist within the Queensland region during his charge.

Is this a reflection of everything a hypothetical Australian capital DOES NOT want to be?
