January 1863: Glasgow Art Union – Ballot for Prizes – Successful Subscribers in Australia

As noted elsewhere on this site, there was a good number of Australian prizewinners in the ballot and draw for prizes

in January 1863.

 

A list of many of the names, numbers of individual shares and prizes, as well as the titles of many of the paintings was

published on page six of The Glasgow Herald, on Wednesday the 21st of January, 1863.

 

Fourteen paintings went to subscribers, as well as fourteen chromo-lithographs.
