Sir Donald Bradman’s Birthplace, Cootamundra.

Description

‘Sir Donald Bradman’s Birthplace, Cootamundra’, is an original oil painting created by artist Meredith Howse, depicting the historic location of Sir Donald Bradman’s birth.
The artwork portrays the cottage where Bradman was delivered by midwife Granny Scholz on August 27th, 1908.
The painting beautifully showcases the quaint cottage that holds significant historical importance. In 1992, the cottage underwent a refurbishment and restoration process, preserving its original charm. Today, the birthplace cottage serves as a museum housing memorabilia dedicated to Sir Don Bradman and the world of cricket.
The artwork captures the exterior of the cottage and extends its composition to the edges, allowing the viewer to feel immersed in the scene. Howse’s meticulous brushwork and attention to detail bring the birthplace to life, depicting the architectural nuances and surrounding landscape.
