Description:
On the reverse features a painting by William Dobell "Margaret Olley, 1948," depicting his fellow artist and a beloved figure of Australian art, Margaret Olley. She modelled for Dobell’s sketches in a plain dress with only a hat for ornament, but Dobell based his painting on the extravagant outfit the young artist had worn to an exhibition opening. His name accompanied by dates, year of birth and death are "1899 - 1970 WILLIAM DOBELL" curves along the upper left edge, the denomination "5 DOLLARS" just under, and the painting's name opposite it.
