RJA is proud to have placed this important painting by Mary Martin, formerly with the C-Bus Collection of Australian Art, back where it belongs. The work was on long-term loan at Wollongong Art Gallery before being acquired by us. As the Wollongong curator remarked. ‘it’s like having an old friend come home’.
