Australian Catholic University (ACU) has commissioned a triptych created in the Medieval Italian Sienese style that will be permanently displayed in the Our Lady Seat of Wisdom Chapel at the ACU's North Sydney Campus.
The work, The Mother of Divine Wisdom, Saint Joseph and Saint Mary of the Cross MacKillop, was created in Italy by Chiara Perinetti Casoni using traditional methods of the14th and 15th century Sienese art using ancient materials and techniques, including centuries-old wooden panels, powdered lapis lazuli for blue, and real gold.
