These three watercolours all feature Mount Hermannsburg, the large eroded feature near the Hermannsburg community, which became one of the most recognisable and reproduced sites in the Hermannsburg repertoire. The selection of three watercolours by different artists each featuring the same site highlights the individual approaches of each artist, and gives a greater awareness of individual style within the school.
