Marking Time: Australia's Abandoned Buildings features the evocative work of renowned author and illustrator Robert Ingpen. The book documents a variety of derelict structures—from remote outback homesteads to industrial ruins—blending historical research with Ingpen’s masterful paintings to tell the silent stories of the people and industries that once thrived there.Originally published in 1979, the work is a significant testament to the changing Australian landscape and the passage of time. Ingpen’s ability to capture the \"beauty in dereliction\" makes this volume both a valuable historical record and a compelling art book. It remains a classic for collectors of Australiana and those with an interest in the intersection of history, art, and conservation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48826054672603,"sku":"2026770000575-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/e1a148ad-993b-402c-978f-b48f8aae2781.png?v=1780311705","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026770000575-secondhand-marking-time-australias-abandoned-buildings","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
