A beautiful way to experience the history and landscape of Mount William Station is through the eyes of Angela Abbott, a family relative and accomplished Australian painter.
Born in Melbourne in 1940, Angela studied drawing at the National Gallery Art School and painting at the Victorian Artists Society. She later received the Alice Bale Art Travelling Scholarship, studying fine art across Europe, and has exhibited widely throughout Melbourne and Sydney. Today, she is a Fellow of the Victorian Artists Society and a long-standing studio artist at Montsalvat.
Over the years, Angela has captured Mount William Station in a series of distinctive works - from sweeping views towards the Grampians mountain range to the historic woolshed, surrounding farmland, Shearers’ Quarters and Lake Anne.
Her paintings offer a very personal interpretation of the Station, reflecting both the character of the landscape and the places that have shaped generations of life here.
During your stay, take the time to explore the Homestead and discover these works throughout the house - part of a collection that connects the Station’s family history, its landscape and its enduring sense of place.
