Born in Australia, the artist moved to Britain to follow her passion, studying art at the Westminster School of Art, where Walter Sickert was amongst her tutors. Bowen befriended Ezra Pound, who drew her into literary and artistic circles of London in the 1910s. She would eventually meet and fall in love with Ford Maddox Brown, with whom she would have a daughter in 1922. Bowen became a War Artist in the Second World War, with many of these works now located at the Australian War Memorial in Canberra. Several of her portraits are also in the National Portrait Gallery in London. Please refer to department for condition report
