About this work
Jacqueline Mitelman moved to Melbourne with her family when she was a child. After living and working in France in 1966, she returned to Melbourne in the early 1970s and began taking photographs in 1972. Her work was shown at Brummels Gallery two years later, and in 1976 she graduated from photographic studies at Prahran College. This portrait was part of a larger series that Mitelman created with the woman pictured. The image was shot at Pinacotheca Gallery in Melbourne, a space devoted to avant-garde art, established in 1967.
