Biography: Richard Hayley Lever was born in Adelaide, Australia in 1876. He demonstrated a talent for art at an early age and devoted his attention to learning the craft during his school days. He was encouraged by his grandfather, owner of a tannery business, who left him a modest inheritance when he died in a tragic accident in 1899. This enabled Lever, who by this time had developed his skills as a painter, to realize his dream of going to Europe, where he hoped to establish a reputation without which he would not be able to receive recognition and become successful in Australia. Lever's paintings and drawings are in numerous collections throughout the United States, Europe and Australia, including the Metropolitan Museum in New York, the Phillips Memorial Gallery in Washington, D.C. and the Sydney Art Gallery, Australia.
