Kiwi-born artist Horatio T. Birdbath’s final wish to bring his art home

Shame it took him dying for anyone to care about bringing his art back. Hope they actually follow through for once.

Who's Horatio T. Birdbath? Sounds like a made up name for a kids book lol

Yeah nah this is actually pretty cool. Perth's loss is Wellington's gain. His murals around Fremantle are mint.

another artist trying to cash in from beyond the grave. bet the family is gonna fight over the money.

Ella Thompson2026-07-11T05:26:00.000Z

seriously? click on literally any article about a dead artist, same story. wake up.

James O’Brien2026-07-11T05:00:00.000Z

rubbish. if he wanted it here he should have done it when he was alive. jokers always leave it to others to clean up.

Finn Walker2026-07-11T05:33:00.000Z

bollocks. read the article, it says he left instructions. some people just love to moan.

Ella Thompson2026-07-11T05:16:00.000Z

This is beautiful. Art should be where the heart is, and clearly he never forgot Wellington. Hope they get it sorted.

yeah cos friends never squabble over dead people's stuff. good luck with that.

Jack Morrison2026-07-11T05:36:00.000Z

never heard of him but the community clearly loved him. respect to his mates for trying to make it happen.

Jack Morrison2026-07-11T06:03:00.000Z

mate it's his friends not the council. chill out.

James O’Brien2026-07-11T06:31:00.000Z

get stuffed. planning for after you're dead is the definition of planning. maybe think before you type.

Blake Turner2026-07-11T05:48:00.000Z

always the same with these arty types. all emotion no planning. who's paying for the shipping then?
