Bakers delight

On High street, Chewton in Central Victoria, a wooden sculpture takes visitors back to the daily life of the gold-rush era. The sculpture, which was unveiled in 2017, depicts Robert Penney in his 1870s bakery. He had a family of 10 children with his wife Ann Maria. His longtime business made him a town fixture and part of its history. Richard Yates, an artist from Wyoming who moved to Victoria in 2002, designed and sculpted Penney, along with other important figures in the town's history.
