The Wynne Prize is awarded annually for 'the best landscape painting of Australian scenery in oils or watercolours or for the best example of figure sculpture by Australian artists’.
Richard Wynne left a bequest which established the prize. It's run and judged on an annual basis by the Trustees of the Art Gallery of New South Wales in Sydney. The prize was first awarded in 1897 when the present Gallery opened in its current home next to the Botanical Gardens and Sydney Harbour (I know - I've been!).
Those whose artwork will be in the exhibition were announced last week.
You can find the Wynne Finalists 2013 listed below. You can also explore past winners and finalists on the prize webpage on the AGNSW website
