This late nineteenth century painted plaster bust of a bedouin was on a pedestal in the tessellated front hall of Chiselhurst 35 Wallace Avenue. Peter’s father, my grandfather T.W. Kerr had been a driver in the Western Desert after enlisting. He took up an opportunity to be trained as a flying officer Photographer in the Royal Flying Corp and went to London where he met Peter’s mother Nita Gladys Smith.They were married in Ipswich where my mother was born .Peter was the youngest of four children.
Only 9 years my senior we were inevitably companions at Chiselhurst until 1953 when he left Melbourne for London. I have no idea how I came to have this figure but imagine I took it off my grandmother’s hands in the sixties when she was the fearful matriarch in a war widow’s attached cottage called Greba in Bulleen ( opposite Heide), and Victorian tat was chic in my version of inner city post art school bohemia.
