Portrait of Hamlet actor named Packing Room Prize winner
Melbourne artist Sean Layh won the 2025 Packing Room Prize for his portrait of Australian actor Jacob Collins as Hamlet. The $3,000 award, judged by gallery staff, precedes the $100,000 Archibald Portrait Prize, with 1,034 entries competing. Fifty-nine Archibald finalists will be announced next Friday, selected from entries featuring activists, musicians and performers rather than political figures.
