Reginald Cecil Grahame (Rah) Fizelle was born in Australia in 1891. Fizelle studied at the Polytechnic School of Art, Regent Street and under Bernard Meninsky at the Westminster School of Art in 1927. Between 1928 and 1930 in Italy, his landscape paintings and watercolours became simplified and geometric and were influenced by Giotto and Piero della Francesca. Whilst travelling in Europe he exhibited at the Royal Academy of Arts, London and the Salon de la Société des Artistes Français, Paris. He returned to Sydney in 1931 and became a prominent teacher. From 1932 to 1937, he and fellow artist Grace Crowley ran the Crowley-Fizelle School, where they promoted the cubism of Andre Lhote and Albert Gleizes with whom Crowley had studied in Paris. This work relates to Rah Fizelle's "Hillside village, Italy" c.1927-31 which is in the collection of The Queensland Art Gallery, Brisbane.
