Lindsay Bernard Hall became Director of the National Gallery of Victoria and Master of its schools in 1892, positions he held until 1934. Occupying an unenviable niche somewhere between the Gallery Trustees and the Felton Bequest Committee, and the landscape tradition and modernism, he is arguably the most under-rated figure in Australian art history. At its best, his work is still breathtaking, while his contribution to the development of art in Australia is inestimable.
Exhibition records confirm that Hall’s work sold steadily throughout his lifetime. Unfortunately, much of what was sold has not been able to be located. Any information as to its current whereabouts would be greatly appreciated.
