Portrait, Photographic, Chris Budgeon, 01 June 2016
This photographic portrait was commissioned to commemorate Dr Genevieve Goulding's term as President of ANZCA. Traditionally, ANZCA presidents have been commemorated at the end of their term with a commissioned oil painting. In 2015, the decision was made by ANZCA Council to change to photographic portraiture. This meant the existing oil paintings of College presidents became a formed collection which will not be added to and this portrait is the first to be commissioned in the new medium. It was unveiled at the ANZCA Council dinner on 22 July 2016. Framed colour photographic portrait of Dr Genevieve Goulding holding the President's medal.goulding, genevieve, anzca president, anzca council, budgeon, chris, photographic artist -
