After a little bit of wrangling with the nice people at The Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery I was allowed to take some pics of this cool old diorama.

I always loved the quaintness of this display - the owl dangling from the roof is my favourite.

Patricia Piccinini liked it so much that she had a new one made from scratch for her awesome Evolution exhibition that recently finished up at TMAG.

Sadly I think these sort of dioramas are on the way out in favour of interpretive panels and touch screens, so I was keen to document it before it disappears.
