Christmas at Glenelg artwork on gum leaf

Fisher, Maurice Stephens, 1836, Artwork, PRG 117/3

An image of the historic Old Gum Tree, a gum tree that has grown in a shape which appears as an 'arch', at Glenelg and surrounding hut dwellings. The artwork was created at the time of the South Australian Proclamation, 1836. The image is hand painted in colour, directly onto the gum leaf support. Brushstrokes and marks are visible. The artist is currently unknown but the archivist believes the artwork may be attributed to Mary Hindmarsh (1817-1887) or Jack Balitho [see B 44055]. The leaf is assumed to have been sourced from the site of the Old Gum Tree. There is a verso inscription on the leaf "Christmas at Glenelg / 1836 / three days before the state / was proclaimed". Following conservation the gum leaf, showing the painted side, is mounted on a tissue support on mat board. A black and white photograph of the verso is included in the housing. The envelope in which the gum leaf was donated has also been retained. It is addressed to Mr M. S. Fisher, c/- Advertiser, Adelaide and postmarked 24 August 1949.
