Cornflower Books suggested posting an image which sums up a book. I'm reading Sulari Gentill's A Few Right Thinking Men (2010) at the moment. It is set in Sydney in the 1930s at the time of the completion of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. So, here's "The Bridge in-curve" (1930) by Grace Cossington Smith (1892-1984) from the National Gallery of Victoria. The bridge was known as the "iron lung" -- its construction provided so many much-needed jobs during the Depression.
Wonderful! I'm so enjoying seeing what people are choosing to represent their reading, so thankyou for posting this.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderul painting: I love the way the bridge soars above the huddle of buildings at the bottom like mating birds
