1900s - Culla Hill painting
In the early 1900s, Mary Sweeney commissioned travelling painter Charles Bertei to paint the Culla Hill homestead. She took this painting with her when she married Michael Carrucan in 1910 and it hung in the Dalton St farmhouse for many years. In the 1960s, the Burstons (the then owners of Culla Hill) had a card printed from the painting. This copy of the card has been given to me by Peter Cuffley.
Unfortunately the painting disappeared with the death of John Carrucan in 1976 but we do have the card.
