Norman Lindsay (1879-1969) - Original Signed Ink Drawing 'Love - The Kiss' 20.5cm x 15cm

An absolutely stunning original ink on paper by Norman Lindsay, Australian (1879-1969). Titled 'Love - The Kiss' and signed centre right: 'Norman Lindsay'. Provenance: Gil Clarke from Yester Grange Art Gallery. The frame is in distressed silver and black with a triple mat board in silver, grey and black. The artwork and frame are both in good condition given the age (Circa 1930). We do note a small crease and repair above the signature but doesn’t detract from the artwork. The signature is the full name and not his normal initials which would indicate an early Lindsay piece. The ink is crisp and clear. Own a piece of history from one of Australia's most loved and renowned artists.

Bio

Norman Alfred William Lindsay (22 February 1879 – 21 November 1969) was an Australian artist, etcher, sculptor, writer, art critic, novelist, cartoonist and amateur boxer. One of the most prolific and popular Australian artists of his generation, Lindsay attracted both acclaim and controversy for his works, many of which infused the Australian landscape with erotic pagan elements and were deemed by his critics to be "anti-Christian, anti-social and degenerate". A vocal nationalist, he became a regular artist for The Bulletin at the height of its cultural influence, and advanced staunchly anti-modernist views as a leading writer on Australian art. When friend and literary critic Bertram Stevens argued that children like to read about fairies rather than food, Lindsay wrote and illustrated The Magic Pudding (1918), now considered a classic work of Australian children's literature.

Apart from his creative output, Lindsay was known for his larrikin attitudes and personal libertine philosophy, as well as his battles with what he termed "wowserism". One such battle is portrayed in the 1994 film Sirens, starring Sam Neill and filmed on location at Lindsay's home in the Blue Mountains, west of Sydney. It is now known as the Norman Lindsay Gallery and Museum and is maintained by the National Trust of Australia.
