Grace Cossington Smith AO (April 22, 1892 - December 10, 1984) was an Australian artist and pioneer of modernist painting in Australia and was instrumental in introducing Postimpressionism to her home country. Examples of her work are held by every major gallery in Australia. Her painting is characterized by individual, square brush strokes with bright unblended colours. Her many paintings of Sydney landscapes, still-lifes, and interiors include "Kuringai Avenue", "Fruit in the Window", and, arguably her most famous painting, "The Lacquer Room" (1935). She received acclaim late in her career, and in 1973 a major retrospective exhibition of her work toured Australia.
