Tudor St. George Tucker b. 18 April 1862

  • Artist (Painter)
A painter and contemporary of Rupert Bunny and Arthur Streeton, Tucker and E. Phillips Fox opened the Melbourne School of Art in 1893, based on the French atelier system. From 1894, they ran a summer school at Charterisville, emphasising plein air painting and live model drawing, both of which provided a popular alternative to the traditional approach offered at the Gallery School.
