About the Artist
Margaret Preston (1875–1963) was one of Australia’s most celebrated modernist artists and printmakers, renowned for her bold interpretations of native flora and distinctly Australian subjects. Born in Adelaide, she studied in Australia and Europe, drawing inspiration from Japanese woodblock printing and European modernism. A pioneering figure in Australian art, Preston helped establish printmaking as a respected artistic medium, with her work now represented in major national collections, including the National Gallery of Australia and the National Gallery of Victoria.
