	J. Skinner Prout at Broulee (1841) and Illawarra (1843-4)
		For example, both Mount Keira (Wollongong) and Mount Wellington (Hobart) feature prominantly in a number of Skinner Prout watercolours, and it is often difficult to distinguish between the two, as both possess prominent escarpment faces.
		Sketch of foliage in the sub-tropical rainforest of the Mount Keira area west of Wollongong.
		According to Brown and Kolenberg (1986), whilst the scene could well be near Mount Wellington, Hobart, the native huts are typical of those found in New South Wales and the mountainous escarpment is most likely that of Mount Keira.

		Australia's worst coal mining disaster occurred in 1902, at the Mount Kiera mine when an explosion killed 96 men.

		It is both a framing device, it's monumental scale frames the landscape through it's negative space and it is a part of the landscape itself, resolving the disparity betwen figure and ground.
