*MARGARET PRESTON(1875-1963)* 1927 COLOUR LITHOGRAPH!

SquareTrade © AP6.0

" Preston began to organise the responses to the physical qualities of the Australian environment in nationalist terms. Her commitment to flowers as a vehicle for 'pure painting', attained a new dimension. A work such as Australian Wild Flowers, painted in 1923, posed vases of the distinctly Australian forms in proximity to the landscape (both garden and bush), straddling an artistic range between soft fauve patterning and a tonal configuration capturing the characteristic qualities of bleached Australian light. "

DEBORAH EDWARDS, in her appreciation of this particular work in her book 'Margaret Preston' Art Gallery of NSW Publisher, 2005.
