About
In 1883, young aristocratic British artist Harriet Jane Neville-Rolfe travelled to visit her family on Alpha Station in central Queensland. Over the next two years she recorded informal observations of daily life on the station, producing a number of the alluring watercolours featured in the International Collection display ‘Plenty’.
Join two of Queensland’s contemporary artists - Vernon Ah Kee and Luke Roberts as they discuss Neville-Rolfe’s influence, and their personal perspectives on the artworks.
