Description
From a vintage 1900s watercolour/watercolor postcard, retouched and restored, by Albert Henry Fullwood.
Albert Henry Fullwood (15 March 1863 � 1 October 1930) was the Australian official war artist to the 5th Division in the First World War.
Fullwood was born in Erdington, Birmingham, son of Frederick John Fullwood, jeweller, and his wife Emma, n�e Barr. From 1878, Fullwood studied art at evening classes at the Birmingham Institute. After graduation, he migrated to Sydney in 1881 and obtained work at John Sands Limited as a lithographic draughtsman and designer. He joined the Art Society of New South Wales in 1884, and shortly afterwards obtained a position on the staff of the Picturesque Atlas of Australia, for which he traveled a good deal in the north and did many drawings. He later worked on The Sydney Mail and other illustrated papers of the time. He kept up his painting, and in 1892 two of his water-colours were purchased for the national gallery at Sydney.
