About Norman Lindsay

Norman Alfred William Lindsay (22 February 1879 – 21 November 1969) was an Australian artist, etcher, sculptor, writer, art critic, novelist, cartoonist and amateur boxer. One of the most prolific and popular Australian artists of his generation, Lindsay attracted both acclaim and controversy for his works, many of which infused the Australian landscape with erotic pagan elements and were deemed by his critics to be ungodly and degenerate. Apart from his creative output, Lindsay was known for his larrikin attitudes and personal libertine philosophy, as well as his battles with what he termed "wowserism".

Additional quotes by Norman Lindsay

Take my advice, don't carry bags,
For bags are just as bad as swags; They're never made to measure.
To see the world, your simple trick
Is but to take a walking-stick— Assume an air of pleasure,
And tell the people near and far
You stroll about because you are A Gentleman of Leisure.
