Yes, dampcat, great call, but do you know which museum this painting was in when I took those pics? You guess that and you can have all my Poal bucks for a month!

it's supposed to be in the Art Gallery of New South Wales, but it's not on display at the moment? I can't imagine it's gone anywhere while NZ was in lockdown

but it might be on tour or they are making space for other exhibitions, sometimes they'll show you their paintings in storage if you sound interested

You win. You get all my Poal bucks for a month starting now (I don't have any left right now, but someone's bound to give up some bucks the cause. By the way, those pics were taken in 2014 in Sydney, even though the gallery says it was only on display until 2011.
