Biography

George Frederick Harris (1856–1924) was a Welsh portrait and landscape painter.

Born in Birmingham, Harris lived in Merthyr Tydfil for most of his life, before emigrating to Australia in 1920, and died in Sydney, due to myocarditis and pneumonia.

Notable among his descendants is composer and painter Rolf Harris.

Two of G. F. Harris's paintings, dated 1893 and 1896, were auctioned by Bonhams auctioneers in 2005. There are over 40 paintings attributed to Harris now held by public bodies or in public art collections.
