SUMMARY:Mulberry Hill open day - see where Picnic at Hanging Rock was written
DESCRIPTION:Join a guided tour of Mulberry Hill led by a National Trust guide\, where Picnic and Hanging Rock was written. \nMulberry Hill was the home of Sir Daryl and Lady Lindsay for over 50 years. Located 45 minutes from Melbourne\, the house sits in a bushland setting and was designed by renowned architect Harold Desbrowe Annear\, who renovated the house using salvaged and reclaimed building materials. \nThe building’s art collection includes the work of Australia’s foremost artists of the twentieth century and the home reflects the Lindsay’s contribution to Australian culture. \nJoan Lindsay is most remembered for writing the classic Australian novel Picnic at Hanging Rock. Her autobiographical book Time Without Clocks reveals the couple’s life together at Mulberry Hill and includes commentary about the arts and social history of the time. \nSir Daryl Lindsay was director of the National Gallery of Victoria from 1941 to 1956\, and was knighted in 1957 for his services to Australian art. A member of the famous Lindsay family of artists\, he was also an accomplished painter. Both Lindsays were involved in the founding of the National Trust of Australia (Victoria) in 1956\, with Daryl serving as the first president. \nTours will run hourly at 11:15 am\, 12:15 pm\, and 1:15 pm. \nPlease note that entry to the house is available only through a guided tour.
