The church was commenced in 1913 and finished in 1937 when the entrance and bell tower were finished. The painting of the inside were completed by a Francesco Floreani who was an immigrant from Venice who came to Australia looking for work. The priest hired him for painting the statues in the church and later to do the artistic paintings shown.
The entrance to the church was undergoing rehabilitation and we couldn't enter through it.
there were twelve of this type paintings on the walls of the church that depicted the Crucifixion of Jesus
Every window was stained glass.
The entire ceiling was painted similar to that shown here.
The Priest and the Painter is included in the painting. The Priest with the cane and the painter kneeling in this painting of "The Crucifixion".
Great tour , thanks:)
