Brain-Watkins Verandah
  Original Painting Digital Print
Size 32.5cm x 40cm backing board size -
Price SOLD -
Order Number GLA005 -
My original acrylic captures one corner of the verandah of this lovely old homestead in Tauranga. It is mounted on an old piece of kauri, I believe from an old Tauranga house.

The paintings itself is 23cm x 30.5cm, on 18mm box canvas.

BRAIN-WATKINS HOUSE, Tauranga. 9/5/07
On the corner by the traffic lights, it stands with solid grace,
Built in 1882, the old Brain-Watkins place,
It's one of very few of those old homesteads that remain,
A treasure here in Tauranga, its presence is our gain.
A wealth of early history's preserved within its doors,
Authentic are its furnishings and highly polished floors,
The contents are original, all lovingly preserved,
Maintained and treated with the due respect that they deserve.

Intricate the fretwork, a verandah so ornate,
Surrounded by a picket fence and sturdy wooden gate,
Joseph Brain had expertise, such craftsmanship and skill,
Victorian this villa, and it's standing proudly, still.
For tourists, its attraction offers much to be explored,
But sadly here in Tauranga, it's largely been ignored.
Though carefully looked after by a dedicated band,
Support is always welcome, if you're keen to lend a hand.

Adams Cottage is 100 years old, situated at the base of Mauao (Mt.Maunganui), Tauranga, Bay of Plenty, and is one of those lovely old icons in the Bay with a lot of history. The painting was completed just before the 100-year makeover was done, involving major changes to the property and appearance of the house.
