Summary

[General description] Head and shoulders portrait of Thomas Price, in three quarter view. A stonemason by trade, he cut the stone and shaped the marble capitals on the columns of the new Parliament House. He became an active trade union member, later elected as member for Sturt in the South Australian House of Assembly in 1893, eventually becoming the Premier of South Australia from 1905 until his death in 1909. His successful stable labour government was regarded as a 'world first'.
