[Fox, William] 1812-1893 :[Westoe. ca 1874?]
- Date

- Description
Shows William Fox's station Westoe, viewed from the side. There is a group of people riding on a cart drawn by two horses, leaving the house, and bush and hills beyond it. The view is from across the river, but the artist has enlarged the house relative to the place from which he must have drawn it; also the carriage and horses are too large for the proportions of the house.
This house was completed in 1874, but possibly substantially built by 1872. See WC-050 for Fox's dated picture of the house
