The painting ‘Helen Blaxland and Tonia’ belongs to a small suite of portraits by William Dobell in Sydney in the early 1940s completed before the troubling period in his life with the debilitating Archibald Prize court case of 1944. Dobell had returned to Australia from London in 1939

At first glance, it’s just a carafe and some lemons… right?

But the carafe in this painting is made out of glass, which makes it anything but simple to paint. You’re not just painting the object, you’re capturing reflections, distortions and everything seen through it at once. Like the reflections of the wallpaper… did you notice those?
