The Cedars is a unique 60 hectare heritage property on Heysen Road, near Hahndorf in the Adelaide Hills, South Australia. It is the historic home of one of Australia's most noted landscape artists, Sir Hans Heysen. The Cedars was purchased by Hans Heysen in 1912, and he lived there with his wife Sallie, and their family of eight children. The property is now owned and managed by the Heysen foundation. This image shows Heysen's studio. Note the redgum trees - they abound on the property and are the signature of Heysen's work.
