Kew Historical Society IncWork on paper - Sepia Wash & Ink, G B Richardson, Creek and Old Watering Stage, on the Yarra, East Collingwood, 1854, 1854
... watercolour is historically significant as perhaps the earliest artwork showing the Yarra River at Kew. It is aesthetically significant as the earliest known ‘Australian’ work by George Bouchier Richardson (1822-77). GB Richardson was born in Newcastle-upon-Tyne and migrated to Melbourne in 1854 on the 'Great Britain'. He disembarked at Port Melbourne on 19 August 1854. He was an engraver and lithographer, as were his father, Moses Aaron Richardson, his brother John Thomas Richardson, and his uncle Thomas Miles Richardson. He acted for some time as librarian of the Melbourne Mechanics' Institute ...Blind Creek was located between the Abbotsford Convent and what is now the Collins Bridge in Studley Park. In an 1858 map of East Collingwood by Clement Hodgkinson, in the State Library of Victoria, one can see how the creek was originally a significant landmark in Collingwood; remaining vacant land until a barrel drain enclosed it. The area was later filled in, surveyed and developed. The position where Blind Creek entered the Yarra was in the immediate vicinity of Hodgson’s Punt, which had linked Kew to the other side of the Yarra from 1839. The Punt was purchased by the Colonial Government in 1852 and was in use until the opening of the Studley Park Road (Johnston Street) Bridge in 1858 made its continued use redundantThe point of view selected by the artist for the watercolour is from the banks of Blind Creek in East Collingwood, looking across the Yarra to the Kew side of the river.Inscribed verso 'Creek and Old Watering stage, on the Yarra East Collingwood 1854 / Trees, stage, &c have long since disappeared / [Artist Signature] / FT 110 / Creek itself now being filled in 1903.gb richardson, blind creek - abbotsford, yarra river - abbotsford (vic) - kew (vic), colonial artists, australian art - 19th century, george bouchier richardson -
