The Art
An ancient, modern and eclectic mix of 30 years of traveling the world, the collection encapsulates the historic nature of Islington itself and the owners’ family history in Tasmania.
History
Islington, built in Regency style in 1847, was one of the first houses built in the dress circle of Hobart and earned its current name around 1899. Davey Street was formerly known as “Holebrook Place” – an exclusive address in the class conscious Hobart town of the period.
Hobart is the capital and most populous city of the Australian island state of Tasmania. Founded in 1804 as a penal colony Hobart is Australia’s second oldest capital city bringing together a vibrant art and music community coupled with inspiring opportunities for outdoor adventure, sophisticated galleries, restaurants and the world famous Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra.
Hobart has just been named in the top 10 ‘best cities in the world to visit in 2013 by Lonely Planet
and ‘Best Weekend Getaway’ at the Australian Gourmet Traveller, Travel Awards 2013.
The worlds cleanest air and water supply a bounty of produce from various vege growers and orchards to over 300 boutique vineyards. Tasmanian’s are leading the way in sustainable farming including ecologically sound fishing practices and agriculture, a real culinary delight awaits.
