FIRE ON THE MOUNTAIN
GEOFF DYER

Exhibited
Despard Gallery
Hobart
2003

A significant and important oil from Geoff Dyer is now on the market for re-sale. From the series Mountain/Fire this painting has been hung in Knopwoods Retreat on Salamanca for the past ten years, protected with a Perspex box and is in fine condition. This work has been the subject of many discussions by patrons over the past decade, an iconic and classic work by a master of Tasmanian Landscape.

The subject familiarity is a powerful and a poignant reminder of the power and devastation of bush fires on our landscape, Dyer captured the raw energy and devastation of the event balanced with an almost romantic sky.
