Rayment (1839–1893) was born in London. From an early age he showed a talent for painting and was a pupil of John Ruskin. He moved to Australia in 1887. For two years, he travelled Queensland, painting pictures for local station owners. This view, with Mt Banca in the background, would have been painted from near the site of today’s IGA. The building on the left is still part of The Little Larder café on Railway Street.
