About this book

Violet Teague and Geraldine Rede created the artist's book "Night Fall in the Ti-Tree" in 1905. Notable for being the first Australian work to use color relief printing, the book has a family of bunnies in it. The narrative takes place as frogs are playing their banjos as the sun is setting on the hill. The book's attractiveness and originality are enhanced by the woodcuts created by Geraldine Rede and Violet Teague.
