White Breasted Robin (Eopsaltria Georgiana) on eucalypt branch, original watercolour on paper, 216 x 140mm, signed. Fine condition. Mary Soady exhibited at the 24th annual exhibition of the Society of Women Painters in Sydney, 1934. In 1941 Soady was a finalist in the Sir John Sulman Prize, part of the Archibald Prize. This wate…rcolour of the White Breasted Robin was possibly a submission for the Sovol Bird Book, which Neville Cayley was to illustrate in 1940. Instead Soady was chosen to illustrate the Solvol Fish Book that same year.
