High commission in Australia: Chancery, 2009

The Chancery, or office building, of New Zealand's high commission in Australia stands near Parliament House in Canberra. It was purpose-built in 1972–73 and opened by New Zealand Prime Minister Norman Kirk in November 1973. In the foreground in this 2012 photo stands one of several cows, corrugated-iron sculptures by New Zealand artist Jeff Thomson. One of the highlights at a Canberra festival in 1987, they were subsequently installed on the Chancery lawns.
