Title: AME Bale
Description: "Alice Marian Ellen Bale (1875-1955) is one of Australia's most significant painters of flowers. She is also known for her subtle and sensitive portraits and for her many evocative studies of interiors and landscapes. She had a strong sense of independence and a firm belief in her own considerable talent, and her life was completely devoted to art. AME BALE, Her Art and Life, the first monograph, is a valuable new source of reference on the life and work of this noted Australian Artist. It contains an authoritative chronology, exhibition list and bibliography.
