In this magnificent painting of dappled golds and green we stroll along Twin Oak Drive in Cornwall Park watched over by the One Tree Hill obelisk. A favoured destination for generations of Aucklanders, Cornwall Park was gifted to the nation by Sir John Logan Campbell in 1901. The American landscape architect Austin Strong worked closely with Sir John on the design of the sweeping tree-lined drives leading through the park.
