Young William Lanne, 2023
$2,014.00
William Lanne was one of the last Tasmanian Aboriginals. He was based on whaling ships for many years, along coast of Tasmania, and by all reports he would go in a trance when he saw the shoreline.
This acrylic portrait of the young William is on unstretched canvas.
When William died in 1869 his body was mutilated and cut up by scientists competing for his skeleton, a symbol of the racially intolerant and violent white settlers of the time. It was said that Crother, the premier at the time, beheaded William Lanne and a statue erected in Hobart in his name will be removed shortly after a vote had been reached.
