Sarah Ann Fogg b. 29 November 1829

  • Artist (Painter)
Sarah Ann Fogg lived variously in Germany, Italy, South Africa and Tasmania and had many opportunities for studying the great Western works of Europe. It is her detailed watercolours of Tasmania, however, that are the most valued and tell us much about the environment at the time.
