Florence Higgs is an example of a female artist who has sadly disappeared from much of the dialogue surrounding Australian art history, and there is very little information available about her. She trained as an art teacher at the Royal Melbourne Technical College. It is known that she later moved to England where she studied lithography at the Central School of Art and Design in London. Her works remain an important part of 1950's printmaking in Australia and many of her works are held by the National Gallery of Australia, Canberra.
