Dangerously Modern: Australian Women Artists in Europe 1890–1940 explores the art and lives of 50 trailblazing women artists and their contribution to international modernism.
Our latest print collection celebrates key works from the exhibition and this mounted postcard print features the portrait The Sock Knitter by Grace Cossington Smith. Acclaimed as the first post-impressionist painting to be exhibited in Australia, the subject of the painting is the artist’s sister Madge.
