| 説明 | Hans Heysen and Nora Heysen and the Cedars.Sir Hans Heysen was born in Hamburg in Germany and migrated to SA in 1883 when he was seven years old. At age 14 he enrolled in James Ashton’s Norwood Art School. From the age of 16 (1893) his works were being exhibited in galleries in Adelaide. He loved the Australian landscape and one of his favourite haunts for painting was the Onkaparinga Valley near the village of Grunthal. In the mid 1890s Robert Barr Smith paid the fees for Heysen to attend the school of design at the Art Gallery of Adelaide. Other patrons paid for his studies of art in Europe on condition that they could sell the works of art he produced whilst there! He returned to Adelaide in 1903, married in 1904, and continued to exhibit in Adelaide and Melbourne. In 1908 he rented a cottage near Grunthal as he loved the big gums of what became Heysen Country. As his fame and commissions grew he was able to buy in 1912 a nearby property, the Cedars, with 36 acres of big gum country. He soon added a studio (1912) and enlarged the house in 1912 and again in 1924 to accommodate his eight children and one adopted child. He transformed the original Victorian villa style house into an Arts and Crafts Federation bungalow style house. He travelled to the Flinders Ranges for the first time in 1926 and by then he was a well-established and prominent artist with many prizes and awards to his name. His recognition as an artist continued and he was knighted in 1959. Sir Hans Heysen died in the Mt Barker Hospital in 1968 and was buried in Hahndorf. Only one of his children showed artistic talent and that was daughter Nora. A number of his paintings depict the country between Verdun, Balhannah and Hahndorf including Summer 1908; Red Gold 1913; The Road 1918; At The Panels 1920; The Toilers 1920; Light and Shade 1923; and Two white Gums near Ambleside 1944. |
