Framed Print of 'A Slab & Bark Hut' by Lawrie

This item is a framed monochrome print titled 'A Slab & Bark Hut,' featuring a detailed illustration of a rustic Australian bush dwelling. The scene depicts a vernacular structure characterized by vertical timber slabs and a bark roof weighted down with poles. A prominent dry-stone chimney stands on the left, while a horse-drawn cart carrying two wooden barrels rests in the foreground to the right. The artwork is rendered in a fine-line pen or ink style, likely from the late 20th century. The signature 'LAWRIE' is printed in the lower right corner, with the cursive title centered underneath the image. The print is housed behind glass in a simple, flat-profile wooden frame with a reddish-brown mahogany-style finish and a black inner bevel or spacer. Regarding condition, the paper appears bright with no obvious foxing, though the frame shows some minor scuffing along the edges. The composition suggests a nostalgic or historical commemoration of early colonial life in the Australian Outback, demonstrating high-quality attention to texture and architectural detail in the line work.
