A survey of Western Australian art from 1696
DESCRIPTION
Author
Spartalis, Arthur, author
Description
This excellent book addresses the role that artists and their works have played in the state's socio-economic development. Many early-colonial artists were immigrants skilled in surveying and lithography, whereas in the 1890s gold rushes, the colony attracted many bona-fide artists from the eastern colonies. The twentieth century saw a professional approach to arts adminsitration as well as the creation of influential private galleries. An essential reference for art historians.
