David Davies b. 21 May 1864

  • Artist (Painter)
David Davies, the son of a Ballarat miner, first came to public notice in the late 1880s when he was a student at the National Gallery School. Although he is best known for his romantic moonlit landscapes of the Victorian countryside, most of his career took place in Paris and in Cornwall, where he was closely associated with the St Ives artists' colony.
