	Archibald Prize - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the early years of the Archibald Prize, the winner was dominated by Victorians, such as McInnes, Longstaff, and Dargie, which was somewhat resented by the art community in Sydney.
		In 1942 William Dargie won the prize with a painting which he had done as an official war artist during World War 2 in Syria.
		The prize has historically attracted a good deal of controversy and several court cases; the most famous in 1943 when William Dobell's win was challenged because of claims it was a caricature rather than a painting.

		Sapling forest, Mittagong is one of a number of images of sapling forests which Williams painted during a visit to Mittagong, New South Wales in 1957-8.
		He painted Sapling forest, Mittagong in gouache, using the fl upright lines of the tree trunks as the dominant structural element of the composition, creating a dense, crowded composition with a restricted sense of pictorial space.
		In this he combined his preoccupation with painterly effects and abstract geometry with a desire for solidity, structure and clarity of form.
