Biography
sketcher, was born on 28 December 1843 in Aldridge Lodge, Hobart Town, the third (surviving?) son of Joseph and Mary Morton Allport . His mother taught him to draw from infancy and preserved examples of his work in her Book of Treasures (Allport Library and Museum of Fine Arts). These include a pencil sketch of a head done in 1847 and sketches and watercolours of flowers made 'from nature’ between 1850 and 1852. Evett’s large scrapbook made jointly by mother and son survives (Allport Library and Museum of Fine Arts), but it is more valuable as evidence of his mother’s tastes and abilities than Evett’s – who never seems to have developed any distinctive artistic skills.
