  • Hello, I am currently trying to research a painting of an Aboriginal male. It has an inscription on the back relating to John A. Longden from Australia and is addressed to a school in Skegness (See attached file) I would be grateful if you could give me any more information on John as it would be great to include some provenance with the painting, many thanks, Tom
