Description: Being offered is an original watercolor painting by Australian aboriginal artist, Benjamin Landara. Featured is a scene of Mt. Sonder of Australia's Northern Territory. The painting is matted and framed under glass. Finished piece measures 16" x 12 1/2" with the exposed artwork measuring 10 1/2" x 7". The painting is signed by the artist along the bottom right. Small blemish of unknown nature being noted above the "B" in Benjamin. Benjamin Landara is an historic member of the Hermannsburg watercolor school. Famously, it was Albert Namatjira whose representations of the dramatic scenery of the Australian interior west of Alice Springs founded this movement. Namatjira gained an unexpected burst of financial success and celebrity status, unheard of for an Aborigine at that time. This changed the course of Australian art. He went on to encourage his extended family members to take up the brush and follow in his footsteps. Benjamin Landara was included in that foundational group. He was related to the Ebataringa family, also artists, and married Namatjira's daughter, Maisie. By the late 1940s he was painting alongside Albert, his early work revealing the master's influence.
