JF Archibald started the Archibald Prize, an Australian art competition, to promote and celebrate Australian portraiture. He believed that Australians should have the opportunity to appreciate and support the work of their own artists. The prize was also intended to encourage Australian artists to develop portraiture as a genre and improve the quality of Australian art.
The Archibald Prize was named after John Feltham Archibald who was later then known as Jules Francois Archibald. The Archibald prize was named after his death in 1919, where he left 89,061 pounds (which is 139,626 USD or 142,796 AUD). After his death one-tenth of the prize was provided for the Archibald prize to commence.
The Archibald Prize is organized by the Trustees of the Art Gallery of New South Wales.
The Archibald Prize is an annual prize set up by a bequest in the will of Jules Francois Archibald in 1919. The bequest stipulated that first prize was to be awarded it an Australian artist for the best portrait of a man or woman distinguished in art, letters, science or politics. The Archibald Exhibition is held in the Art Gallery of New South Wales.

Archibald believed that it was important for a nation as young as Australia to have a strong sense of national identity, and he decided to encourage this through a portraiture prize. The prize was to achieve three key aims: to promote portraiture, encourage Australian artists and memorialize prominent Australians. To do this, Archibald dictated that the subject and the artist must both be Australian residents.
