Art


I love public art and Victoria seems to have a lot.
This ships figure head was carved out of a dead tree in Torquay in the 70's after the original disappeared in the 1950's.
It had sailed all the way from Scotland in the late 1800's only to sink just off the coast. 
Figure heads are another favourite of mine and the Fremantle Maritime Museum has a rather lovely collection, sadly they wouldn't fit in the car!
