Successful Australian Artist Mr. Allan Strawbridge, younger son of the late Mr. William Strawbridge, I. S. O. (a former Surveyor-General of this State) , who left Australia some years ago for Europe to follow an art career, has recently had work acquired by the Contemporary Art Society for the British Museum. Known also as a sculptor and a writer of poems of a high standard, Mr. Strawbridge has been described as a painter of imprisoned sunlight. He held an exhibition of paintings at the Godfrey Phillips' Galleries in London, which was opened by Major-General Sir Granville Ryrie. 'The Times' and 'The Daily Chronicle' gave excellent notices of the display, the latter stating: -'There is in all Mr. Strawbridge's work, which is virile and bold in style, a quality of abounding sunlight His color is jubilant, triumphant, aflame with vitality and joy of life.' Mr. Strawbridge served in the war, and was for two years a prisoner in Germany. In 1928 he married in England Miss Fanny D Phillips, younger daughter of the late H. T. Phillips, of Adelaide.
