Norman Lindsay Gallery and Museum, Art museum in Faulconbridge, Blue Mountains, Australia.
The Norman Lindsay Gallery and Museum is an art museum in Faulconbridge in the Blue Mountains displaying paintings, etchings, and sculptures housed in a sandstone cottage and surrounding gardens. The collection spans multiple decades of artistic work displayed within the artist's original spaces.
Artist Norman Lindsay and his wife Rose Soady purchased the property in 1912, establishing their residence and creative center for nearly 60 years. During this extended period, their most significant works were created here, and the art collections developed that are displayed today.
The exhibition displays Lindsay's original paintings and illustrations alongside his studio, where he created the acclaimed children's book The Magic Pudding. His work reflects a connection to classical themes and nature that remains visible throughout the displayed pieces.
A paved ramp provides easy access for visitors with mobility needs, and the gardens are open for leisurely exploration. The museum shop stocks reproductions of the artist's work, making it convenient to purchase a memento of your visit.
The garden displays numerous stone sculptures of mythological figures such as nymphs, satyrs, and sphinxes that the artist created himself. These hand-carved sculptures give the grounds a distinctive character beyond what most museum collections offer.
