At the end of the successful defence of the women’s Ashes cricket against England – and on the eve of the start to the men’s Ashes series – WfaAR sees very good use for this season’s slogan #BEATENGLAND in the Republic campaign. Cricket isn’t the only arena to benefit from these words to be found boldly on the front of many T-shirts this summer – good stuff!
Woman for an Australian Republic, Adelaide Ironside, republican poet and artist 1831-1867
Self portrait 1855, Newcastle Art Gallery NSW
