What is recorded here
George Frederick Folingsby is a birthplace in County Wicklow, Ireland. Perhaps the boy who became an Australian artist first watched rain move across Wicklow fields, learning to see before learning to paint. Maybe that childhood eye followed him across the ocean, carrying green light into every foreign sky he later recorded.
Why this person is known: Irish-born Australian artist (1828-1891)
