Description
Limited Edition of 50
61 × 76 cm
This museum-quality reproduction faithfully captures one of Ray Cooke’s rare and historically significant paintings, Federal Hotel, Thursday Island. Originally painted in acrylic on linen, the work was first exhibited in 1998 as part of the acclaimed Escape Artists: Modernists in the Tropics exhibition at the Cairns Regional Gallery.The exhibition toured nationally to major regional galleries, including Rockhampton City Art Gallery, Brisbane City Gallery (now the Museum of Brisbane), Mossman Art Gallery, Ballarat, and the Perc Tucker Regional Gallery before concluding in 1999. Following the completion of the national tour, the original painting entered the private collection of Diana Crookes, where it has remained ever since.
Produced at the original artwork size, this fine art reproduction preserves the scale and character of the original painting. Each print is professionally produced on premium 310 GSM cotton rag paper, offering exceptional colour fidelity, archival quality, and a beautifully textured finish worthy of collectors.
Strictly limited to 50 reproductions, each print measures 61 × 76 cm with a 5 cm white border, making it ideal for professional framing. Prints are supplied carefully rolled in a protective tube for safe delivery.
