Albert Henry Fullwood (1863-1930) was a painter who was born in Erdington, Birmingham in 1863, and studied art at evening classes at Birmingham School of Art. Henry as he was known emigrated to Sydney in 1881 and obtained work as a lithographic draughtsman and designer. He joined the Art Society of New South Wales in 1884 and shortly afterwards obtained a position on the staff of the Picturesque Atlas of Australia, for which he travelled a good deal in northern Australia and executed many drawings. He afterwards worked on the Sydney Mail and other illustrated papers of the time. He kept up his painting, and in 1892 two of his watercolours were purchased for the National Gallery of Australia, Sydney.
In 1895 he took a leading part in forming the Society of Artists at Sydney and was a member of its first council. He returned to Europe in 1900 by way of America, holding on the way a very successful exhibition of his work at New York. He made London his headquarters, exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1901, 1904, and later years, and also at various exhibitions in Europe. During World War I Fullwood was a sergeant in the RAMC and later an Australian official war artist. He returned to Sydney in 1920 and worked chiefly in watercolour and etching. He is represented in the national galleries in Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide, at Dresden and Budapest, and in the Australian War Museum at Canberra.
