The Great Hall, scene of many national receptions and banquets. The Parliament House was officially opened by the Queen in here. At the far end is a giant tapestry based on a painting by Arthur Boyd, one of Australia's famous artists. He was in his late 70's though when this was commissioned so he said rather than paint the whole thing again, why not have it done up as a woven tapestry.
