Russia-born Australian portrait painter
1873 - 1930
Australian painter, draughtsman and sculptor. He lived for a period in Europe and emigrated to Australia in 1887. He trained under Julian Rossi Ashton, gaining early recognition for his draughtsmanship. In 1901 he studied in Paris at the Acad?mie Colarossi under Auguste Del?cluse (b 1855). He was strongly influenced by the work of Diego Vel?zquez and Edouard Manet. The work of Sandro Botticelli later inspired him to paint in a high key and with an enhanced realism, as in Important People (1914; Sydney, A.G. NSW). He lived in England from 1902 to 1921 Related Paintings of George W.Lambert :. | After Culloden- Rebel Hunting | Approaching Storm | Genes (mk11) | The Philosopher | The donor Adriaan Reins in front of Saint Adrian on the left panel of the Triptych of Adriaan Reins | Related Artists: Karl Jakob Theodor Leybold painted Portrait of a young woman in 1822 Edith Hayllar British Painter, 1860-1948 tacuinum sanitatis 1673
