Wicked But Virtuous is Mirka Mora’s spirited memoir of bohemian Melbourne, told in her trademark paint-splashed voice and illustrated with her own whimsical drawings. This 2000 Australian hardcover collects the beloved artist’s memories of war, migration, and the avant-garde circles that shaped her career.

Collectors prize this vintage edition for its sturdy hardcover binding and the generous colour plates that carry Mora’s joyful, childlike line. Every page remains crisp and unmarked, free of notes, smoke, or dog-eared corners, so the artwork pops as brightly as her anecdotes.

Ideal for readers of art history, biography, or women’s memoirs, the book pairs personal stories with behind-the-scenes glimpses of Australia’s post-war creative scene. Keywords like “illustrated autobiography” and “female artist memoir” make it easy to locate online for gift-giving or shelf-upgrading.

Secure packaging ships this clean, tight copy straight from a smoke-free home, ready to slip among other treasured monographs or become the colourful centrepiece of a burgeoning art-book collection.
