Margaret Preston is one of Australia’s most significant artists. A key figure in the development of modern art in Sydney in the 1920s to the 1950s, her paintings and woodcuts of local landscapes and native flora are instantly recognisable.
Printed around 1933, Australian Rock Lily features Preston’s signature bold block printed linework in black and hand-coloured detail, and is available as a ready to frame print exclusive to the Gallery Shop.
