Bernhard Smith b. 1820

Also known as B. Smith
  • Artist (Painter),
  • Artist (Sculptor)
19th century painter, sculptor and civil servant, whose pre-Raphaelite type medallion portraits of several associates and family members were exhibited at the Royal Academy, London. However, it was his drawings and illustrations of poetry and fantastic scenery borrowed from Australian landscape and vegetation with a spaciousness and clarity of format which is significant within Australian art history.
