• Notes:
  With Macquarie Galleries label verso “certifying that this painting is an original work by John Passmore, painted in England during the 1940s, from the collection of Mr. Reginald Jenkins, at whose country house Passmore frequently stayed.” Passmore, like so many of Australia’s most rigorous artists who painted in Europe in the 1920s and 1930s, studied Cézanne for most of his professional life. “... There's two things about Cézanne - you can imitate him as much as you like and you can fall flat on your face ... what you have to do is study him as deeply as he studied himself".
