The Norman Lindsay Gallery and Museum is the former residence and farmlet of Australian artist Norman Lindsay. Now an art gallery, tourist attraction and museum located at 14–20 Norman Lindsay Crescent in the Blue Mountains town of Faulconbridge in the City of Blue Mountains local government area of New South Wales, Australia, it was built from 1898 to 1913 by Francis Foy, Patrick Ryan, Lindsay, and the artist's wife, Rose Lindsay (nee Soady). The property, owned by the National Trust of Australia (NSW) (Community Group), is also known as Maryville and Springwood.
The site includes a stone cottage home on a 17-hectare (42-acre) and several smaller buildings, including two used by Lindsay as an oil painting studio and an etching studio. It was added to the New South Wales State Heritage Register on 1 March 2002.[1]
The 1994 film Sirens, based on Lindsay's work and life, was filmed at the home and studio.
