Ellis Rowan: A Life in Pictures

Member's Price $ 31.49

Scattered throughout Christine Morton-Evans' new illustrated biography of the artist, Ellis Rowan's own words offer an expressive and often amusing insight into the way Rowan saw the world. Portraying herself as an 'intrepid lady explorer', she not only adventured into wild and inaccessible places in search of new wildflowers and wildlife, she also wrote of these expeditions in vivid accounts for her family, and later for print in newspapers.  This is her story, told through the wonderful paintings that form part of her collection of 970 works held by the National Library of Australia.
