Jim Haynes & Davidson Gallery exhibition

What a fantastic time we had – so many lovely people – so many wonderful paintings.

Another wonderful exhibition set up by the staff at Davidson Auctions Gallery in May.   Another planned for November!

We had a full house for the third presentation of history and art of Sydney Harbour.   Thanks to all who came along, especially the 2GB listeners, friends and ‘regulars’.   Thanks also to the wonderful staff at Davidson Auctions.

Collecting and researching rare and historically important images of Sydney Harbour has been a great pleasure, as well as an obsession. It’s a pleasure to pass on information and, eventually, the artworks themselves to people who appreciate them.

Robyn and I look forward to a sharing tea and biscuits and conversation with people who value the history of our harbour.  We love remembering the artists who helped preserve our heritage.

The next exhibition and talk is planned for November 2026.  If you would like to be kept updated, please email Jim
