“Printed Images in Colonial Australia 1801-1901” is concerned with the history of printmaking in Australia’s foundational period. This book’s 377 images, many of them exceedingly rare or long overlooked, are presented alongside Roger Butler’s original research and information not previously assembled in order to give full weight to the important role of the printed image in Australian art and culture.
