#narrynaheritagemuseum #strippingbacktheVeilofAmnesia #artexhibition2016 #artinstallation2016 #dark_mofo2016 Great to have so many visitors checking out Tasmanian artist Christina Henri's bonnet exhibition at Narryna, 103 Hampden Rd, Battery Point. One of the two bonnets included in this photo remembers Patience Merchant. Patience was a 54 year old cook/ pastry cook with 5 children from Frome, Somerset. Patience was sentenced to 14 years, transported to Van Diemen's Land, for receiving a pair of stolen shoes - from her son. Her Conduct Record shows her Ticket-of-Leave and Conditional Pardon dates. She was described as 'good', 'Quiet, well behaved'.
