Here's to Grandpa! The Watercolours 1900–1940 of C.A. Wilson presents a curated celebration of the watercolour works produced by Australian artist C.A. Wilson across four transformative decades. Weston Bate, a respected Australian historian, chronicles the life and artistic output of Wilson through the intimate lens of family memory and cultural history, illuminating the man behind the brushstrokes. The work situates Wilson's paintings within the broader context of Australian art history, detailing how his landscapes and figurative scenes captured the spirit of early twentieth-century life. Written with warmth and scholarly precision, it stands as both a tribute to a beloved artist and a valuable record of a significant period in Australian watercolour tradition.
