Godfrey Miller b. 20 August 1893

Also known as Godfrey Clive Miller
  • Artist (Painter),
  • Artist (Draughtsman),
  • Artist (Photographer)
The New Zealand born Godfrey Miller became one of Australia's most admired artists of the mid-twentieth century. His shyness, combined with the way he continued to work and rework his paintings meant that the full extent of his theosophically inspired oeuvre was not revealed until after his death.
