Ray Austin Crooke

Ray Austin Crooke was an Australian artist known for for serene views of Islander people and ocean landscapes, many of which are based on the art of Paul Gauguin. He won the Archibald Prize in 1969 with a portrait of George Johnston. His painting The Offering (1971) is in the Vatican Museum collection. Many of his works are in Australian galleries. He was made a Member of the Order of Australia in the 1993 Australia Day Honours, "in recognition of service to the arts, particularly as a landscape artist".
