Painting Australia - Selected landscapes (1866 - 1980)

The dominant theme in Australian art has always been the landscape. Since European settlement, artists from other nations as well as the local-born have interpreted the land through their experiences and the philosophies of the day. This set of landscapes is representative of the changes in interpretation that have taken place.

The selection of art works represents the way artists have used a common theme to respond to their environment or their experience of life.
