Public Artwork, Peter Nicholson, John Malcom Fraser (Prime Ministers Walk) by Peter Nicholson
John Malcolm Fraser, served as Australia's 22nd Prime Minister from 1975 to 1983. The Prime Ministers walk at Ballarat Botanical Gardens has over time created a special and unique understanding of our Prime Ministers and the strength of belief, passion and understanding we had for these leaders. The different styles used reflect the times and the techniques used to undertake these portraits of leaders makes us consider those elements of official portraiture, including textures, sizes and features and proportions used by some of the artists. The artwork is of historic and aesthetic significance to the people of BallaratBronze bust cast on granite and concrete plinth.John Malcolm Fraser Prime Minister 1975-1983malcolm fraser, prime minister, australian pm
