About Albert Enes
A portraitist and artist of mythological subjects, Albert Enes was born in 1876 and became a student of the influential Melbourne Art School conducted by E. P. Fox and T. St. George Tucker. Enes exhibited with the Victorian Artists' Society from 1904 to 1916, where in one year his work "Pan" caused a sensation. He had a rare sense of colour and composition, his work being treated in an individual decorative way. Enes worked for many years with the 'Sydney Morning Herald'.
