Urban sketchers enjoyed visiting the Planting Dream Exhibition at the State library in Sydney yesterday. Garden historian, Richard Aitken is the curator and we were lucky enough to have him show us around the show.
The exhibition celebrates the 200 anniversary of the founding of the Royal Botanic Garden in Sydney. As curator, Richard Aiken got to sort through the library's collections to find rare and interesting items to illustrate the history of garden making. It includes paintings, photographs, books, sculptures and installations.
The show runs until January 15, 2017. Well worth a look around.
