Nolan was one of the leading Australian artists of the 20th century. Working in a wide variety of media, his oeuvre is among the most diverse and prolific in all of modern art. He is best known for his series of paintings on legends from Australian history, most famously that of Ned Kelly, the bushranger and outlaw. Nolan's stylised depiction of Kelly's armour has become an icon of Australian art.

Los Angeles : The Getty Conservation Institute, 2020. Octavo, illustrated wrappers, pp. viii; 136, illustrated with73 colour and 23 black and white illustrations, 3 charts. New copy. Sidney Nolan (1917?1992) is renowned for an oeuvre ranging from views of Melbourne?s seaside suburb St. Kilda to an iconic series on outlaw hero Ned Kelly. Working in factories from age fourteen, Nolan began his training spray painting signs on glass, which was followed by a job cutting and painting displays for Fayrefield Hats. Such employment offered him firsthand experience with commercial synthetic paints developed during the 1920s and 1930s. In 1939, having given up his job at Fayrefield in pursuit of an artistic career, Nolan became obsessed with European abstract paintings he saw reproduced in books and magazines. With little regard for the longevity of his work, he began to exploit materials such as boot polish, dyes, secondhand canvas, tissue paper, and old photographs, in addition to commercial and household paints. He continued to embrace new materials after moving to London in 1953. Oil-based Ripolin enamel is known to have been Nolan?s preferred paint, but this fascinating study certain to appeal to conservators, conservation scientists, art historians, and general readers with an interest in modern art?reveals his equally innovative use of nitrocellulose, alkyds, and other diverse materials. Paula Dredge is head of paintings conservation at the Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia.
