Robert Boyed Mitchell (19 December 1919 – 19 March 2002) is an Australian artist who dedicated his life to his art practice without getting recognition during his lifetime. He experienced his first creative surge in the most difficult of circumstances: as a prisoner of war during World War II, drawing his surroundings, and despite adversity, inspired by the beauty of Japan. After the war, Robert Mitchell studied art at East Sydney Technical College, together with fellow art students John Coburn, Jon Molvig, Jean Weir, Stan De Teliga. Frank Hinder was among his teachers and became a lifelong friend.
