2/9th AGH, 17 Mile, Moresby area
Description
Situated 17 miles from Port Moresby, all casualties from the forward areas passed through this hospital for treatment or evacuation to Australia, 2/9th Australian General Hospital. The artist considered this oil a "colour note", rather than a finished painting.
