The Archibald prize 2012 and the winner is....

The winner of the 2012 Archibald Portrait Prize was announced as Tim Storrier, one of Australia's leading artists and no stranger to public recognition. His work "The histrionic wayfarer (after Bosch)" has no immediate face but actually Storrier's face can be detected elsewhere in the painting. The earlier post before this one shows the winning entry. Storrier is a well known and popular exponent of his art form and his works frequently sell for six figure sums in the commercial art galleries. An example of his better known landscapes is shown below.
