Norman Lindsay stands as one of Australia's most vibrant and controversial figures in history. Hailing from a renowned family of five esteemed artists, his contributions spanned a wide spectrum. From penning the beloved childhood classic, "The Magic Pudding," to crafting daring and once-censored artwork, Lindsay's creative vision was both lively and rebellious.

While Lindsay worked in Australia, his artistic realm transcended to an imagined era and locale. His pieces, often fantastical yet always rich in detail, remain captivating and highly sought-after, marking some of Australia's most coveted collections. Owning a Lindsay piece isn't merely possessing art—its embarking on a journey through a captivating chapter in Australian art history.

A national treasure, Lindsay's presence resonates in major public collections, continually sparking research, exhibitions, and dialogues.

The model for ‘Nude with Mantilla’ was Rose Lindsay, the artist’s wife. The original plate was never published, rendering this facsimile etching the sole outcome derived from the original. It comes with a Certificate of Authenticity from Odana Editions, affirming its provenance.
