  1. Im doing research on Mr and Mrs Talbot Sanderson and their home in Moss Vale nsw.
    I would love to see this portrait of him painted for the Archibald art prize.
    Also any details of the home would be of great value.

    1. Hi There
      Sorry for such a late reply. I put the site up but don’t tend to it as much as I should. I wish I could help you. I would dearly love to see the portrait myself. I only know of it but have not seen it.
