Summary

Description
English: Brett Whiteley's Sydney Harbour view at Lavender Bay has been added to the NSW heritage register.

Sydney Harbour was captured famously in many of Brett Whiteley's paintings, and now the outlook he painted will be added to the NSW State Heritage Register.

It will be the only listing in the state which includes parts of Sydney Harbour, and it recognises and protects what can be seen in Whiteley's paintings.

His house of 20 years at Lavender Bay, before his death in 1992, has also been included on the register after a campaign from his wife, Wendy Whiteley, who has lived there for almost 50 years.

Wendy too has created a work of art there, spending more than the past two decades turning the state-owned unofficial dump into a green sanctuary known as "Wendy's secret garden".
