John Penman b.

  • Artist (Printmaker)
John Penman was lithographer and copperplate printer who was born in Scotland and then emigrated to South Australia in 1848. Later his colleague, William Galbraith, recalled that they both chose South Australia because J. Stephens' pamphlet on that colony 'mentioned that butter was so plentiful and so cheap that people were in the habit of greasing their boots with it'.
