Early lifeDora Lynnell Wilson was born on 31 August 1883 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. Her parents were James Wilson, agent, and Annie Maria, née Green.[1] The family emigrated to the state of Victoria in Australia in 1884, when Dora was a year old. EducationWilson was educated at Somerset School and Methodist Ladies' College in Melbourne. From 1901-1906 she studied at the National Gallery under Bernard Hall and Frederick McCubbin. She also took lessons from John Mather.[1] Artistic careerWilson was best known for her etchings, pastels and oils of still lifes and nudes. Her work was praised for her 'strong sense of colour' but also critiqued for demonstrating a 'chocolate box prettiness'.[2] Her work was included in a number of notable exhibitions, including the Australian Exhibition of Women's Work in Melbourne, a Royal Academy exhibition of Australian art in London.[3] In 1923 her work, 'Reve d'Or', was reproduced on the cover of Women's World.[1] From the 1920s onwards she concentrated largely on street scenes, and in 1923 she was commissioned by Sir Baldwin Spencer to undertake a series of paintings of European landmarks, which saw her travelling around Europe for over two years, accompanied by the photographer Pegg Clarke.[4] In 1928 these works were exhibited at the Beaux Arts Gallery, London,[5] and the following year at Australia House. In the early 1930s she focused on historical scenes from Melbourne's history, with an exhibition entitltled 'Milestones of Melbourne' held at the Fine Art Society Gallery in March 1935.[6] DeathWilson died of cancer on 21 November 1946 and was cremated at Springvale Cemetery, Melbourne.[7] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web|last1=Lee|first1=Mary Alice|title=Wilson, Dora Lynnell (1883–1946)|url=http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/wilson-dora-lynnell-9134|website=Australian Dictionary of Biography|accessdate=6 February 2018}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Wilson, Dora Lynnell}}2. ^{{cite news|title=Dora Wilson's Exhibition|url=https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/16287018?searchTerm=%22dora%20wilson%22&searchLimits=|accessdate=6 February 2018|publisher=The Sydney Morning Herald|date=20 Apr 1926}} 3. ^{{cite news|title=Australian Art: The Exhibition in London|url=https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/204059392?searchTerm=%22Exhibition%20of%20Australian%20Art%22%20%2B%20wilson&searchLimits=l-decade=192|accessdate=6 February 2018|publisher=The Age (Melbourne, VIC)|date=26 May 1923}} 4. ^{{cite web|last1=Lee|first1=Mary Alice|title=Wilson, Dora Lynnell (1883-1946)|url=http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/wilson-dora-lynnell-9134|website=Australian Dictionary of Biography}} 5. ^{{cite news|title=Artist's Exhibition|url=https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/222958619?searchTerm=%22Beaux%20Arts%20Gallery%22%20%2B%20wilson&searchLimits=l-decade=192|accessdate=6 February 2018|publisher=The Sun (Sydney, NSW)|date=1 Jul 1929}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=Milestones of Melbourne by Dora L.
