As a whaling station, pleasure ground and burgeoning suburb, Mosman was aptly described by Henry Lawson in the early 1900s as ‘safe from the city’s haste.’ This exhibition which takes its name from Lawson’s poem Mosman’s Bay, presents selected works from the Mosman Art Gallery collection which have been acquired through donations and bequests. Together, these paintings reveal the delight artists have taken in Mosman vistas over a hundred year period from 1880 to 1955.
