Artist's Description
Mutton Bird Island is where, on the 1st June 1878, a sailing clipper from England, grounded on the island in the morning mists. This was the Loch Ard and only two of 54 passengers survived. The ill-fated ship has lent its name to the dramatic gorge in the orange coloured cliffs. Also in the Port Campbell National Park are the famous Twelve Apostles, a series of sandstone pinnacles.
