Description:

Biography:
George William Evans (1780–1852)
As well as being a competent surveyor and explorer, Evans was an artist of some note. His aquatint view of Hobart in 1820 was published as a frontispiece in his Geographical, Historical and Topographical Description of Van Diemen’s Land . He appears to have drawn a number of sketches and water-colours, both of the settled areas of the colony and of the interior, when he journeyed with Oxley. His artistic skill may also have helped him to win Paterson’s favour in 1809 and so to restore him to official life at that time.
