Rupert Charles Wulsten Bunny (29 September 1864 – 25 May 1947) was an Australian painter.[1] Born and raised in Melbourne, Victoria, he achieved success and critical acclaim as an expatriate in fin-de-siècle Paris.[2] He gained an honourable mention at the Paris Salon of 1890 with his painting Tritons and a bronze medal at the Paris Exposition Universelle in 1900 with his Burial of St Catherine of Alexandria.[3] The French state acquired 13 of his works for the Musée du Luxembourg and regional collections.[4] He was a "sumptuous colourist and splendidly erudite painter of ideal themes, and the creator of the most ambitious Salon paintings produced by an Australian."[5]
