About Artist:
Sir Sidney Nolan, arguably the most significant modernist Australian artist, was best known for his depictions of the history and mythology of bush life in Australia. His paintings, often rich in colour, striking in composition and deliberately awkward in technique, represent Australian stories of loss, failure and capture, featuring figures such as the bush ranging Kelly Gang, shipwreck victim Eliza Fraser and the explorers Burke and Wills. Nolan?s iconic paintings of the Kelly Gang contributed to the development of the image of Ned Kelly as a symbol for Australian history and identity.
