Russell Drysdale painted some of the iconic landscapes of the Australian outback, and in the 1940s his paintings and drawings enabled city people to see the devastation of drought on a dry land. His modernism was sufficiently muted to enable him to be accepted by many conservatives, and the exotic nature of his subject matter led to significant international success.
