The artist -
Michael Leunig (1945 - 2024) known simply as Leunig, was an Australian cartoonist, philosopher, poet and artist. The Penguin Leunig, his first book of collected cartoons, was published in 1974 and he produced 23 more collections including books of newspaper columns, poetry and prayer. His prints, paintings and drawings have been exhibited broadly and are held in various public and private collections.
In 1999 he was declared a national living treasure by the National Trust and awarded honorary degrees from La Trobe and Griffith Universities for his unique contribution to Australian culture. His work appeared regularly in the Age and The Sydney Morning Herald.
