Inkline watercolour

Datec 2015Reference NumberAms 538/7/1DescriptionA combination ink line and watrercolour thought to be a derivative work to put on the cover of Peg Cummins' "A History of Welcome Bay" (2015) and produced by Ben Cummins. The house was built by Johnathon Brown in 1878. It is a large kauri homestead, five rooms downstairs and four upstairs, overlooking the bay, islands, town, and surrounding country. The twin-gable roof, wooden shingles, and dual staircases—men to the left, women to the right—were key architectural features. The house stood amid blue gums, macrocarpa, pinus insignis, Norfolk pines, lemons, tree ferns, cabbage trees, a Moreton Bay fig, orchard, kitchen garden, and other station buildings including an eight-stall stable, cow shed, and shearing sheds. The mature Norfolk pine beside the house later became a local landmark.
