Excerpt from A Memoir of George Higinbotham: An Australian Politician and Chief Justice of Victoria MY picture is finished, and I can add no more little touches to it. No longer can I paint out this bit nor paint in that, nor can I add brighter colours to the back ground to make the central figure clearer. Probably every painter, when he reaches this point, recognises in himself a mixed feeling - pleasure that his work is completed, and doubt whether it expresses all that he wished it to express. With me the doubt is the stronger feeling. I know that I have not accomplished what I wished and that I shall not satisfy friends and admirers, but yet I trust that the portrait is like and that the surroundings are made clear. I have done what I could. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
