MLHS Aquires Mack Laing Painting
The Mack Laing Heritage Society is pleased to announce the acquisition of a painting by Mack Laing, “Gladiolas’, presented to his nephew Mack Tripney Laing, of Victoria, in the late 1960s.
MLHS was contacted by his daughter, Maureen JE (Laing) Pengelly this year, to determine if the Society was interested in the painting. MLHS thanked her and declared it would be pleased to acquire it. On her recent death, the executor of her estate contacted MLHS and arranged for it to be picked up in Victoria. The painting was granted on a permanent loan.
We are very grateful for being able to acquire this painting, which is both unusual in subject matter and very striking.
The painting measures 36″ X 30.5″ and has the original wooden 3″ frame.
