We are as shadows...

Watching the parade-to-execution of a Prime Minister, on TV an hour ago, we screen-snapped this one image of PM Malcolm Turnbull (centre) and his ally Arthur Sinidinos (left) as they passed by an artwork of John Coburn, all lit by camera flashes.

As he approaches the Liberal Party Meeting Room for the leadership vote, the Prime Minister knows he will be overthrown by former PM Tony Abbott's revolt of reactionary avengers.

Arthur Sinidinos, who was instrumental in Turnbull's ascendency over Abbott three years ago, is seriously ill with cancer.

The people's Parliament House Art Collection is very poorly represented online. We needed to search elsewhere to confirm details of the John Coburn artwork : appropriate to this Theatre of the Actors of Regard procession of shadows... 
its title is Death and transfiguration.

And the vote, the result? The Liberal Party has today elected this person, Scott Morrison, as Australia's next Prime Minister, leader of the Government COALition.
