Harold Herbert

Harold Brocklebank Herbert was an early 20th century Australian painter and printmaker, an illustrator and cartoonist. A traditionalist, as an art teacher he promoted representational painting, and as a critic was an influential detractor of modernism. He was the first war artist to be appointed for Australia in the Second World War, serving for 6 months with the Australian Infantry Forces in Egypt in 1941 and in the Middle East in 1942. Herbert continued the Australian impressionist style and exercised particular skill with watercolour washes and his etchings, lithographs and cartoons are in an economical, sketchy style.
