Abstract:
dorothy erickson’s research for her new book Inspired by Light and Land: Designers and Makers in Western Australia 1829–1969 has uncovered more information about objects made in Western Australia and their makers. Her previous articles published in Australiana on Amy Harvey, William Howitt, Charles May and Henry Passmore were made more rewarding with the collaboration of interested family members, who had already undertaken some research or knew where works existed in the family. the research and connections of Joseph Hamblin’s descendant Jill Roy have been crucial to documenting his life and work in England, Perth and Victoria.
