About the Item
Oil on canvas, signed (lower left), 59cm x 49cm (72cm x 62cm framed).
An Australian artist, who studied at the Royal Academy in London in the 1930s, Abbott became highly accomplished in portraiture, still life, and genre paintings. After enlisting in the army during WWII, in 1943 he was appointed an official war artist. After the war, he dedicated himself to teaching at the National Art School in Sydney, where he later became the head and State Supervisor of Art. The style and composition of the painting, suggests it was painted in the 1950s; by the late 1960s Abbott abandoned narrative and figurative works in favour of bold abstract compositions. His work is in the collections of National Gallery of Australia, the Art Gallery of New South Wales, as well as various regional art galleries across Australia.

Plummer trained at the Royal Academy Schools in the early 1950s, championed by Stanley Spencer and Sir Herbert Read, he was the recipient of the coveted Leverhulme Scholarship.
