Artworks (L-R): Frederick McCubbin Down on his luck 1889; John Longstaff Breaking the news 1887. State Art Collection, Art Gallery of Western Australia
PRESENTING WORKS FROM THE 1700S TO THE 1910S, THIS DISPLAY FEATURES EXAMPLES OF SOME OF THE KEY ART MOVEMENTS OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY.
There is nothing like a personal interaction to spark the imagination. Whether you’re a seasoned artistic traveller or apprentice explorer, our Voluntary Gallery Guides, offer that extra insight and revealing glimpse into the artwork, the era and the artist.
This guided tour takes a look at works from the 1700s to the 1910s, and features examples of some of the key art movements of the nineteenth century.
Many works take landscape as their subject, and the artistic approaches range from a precise observation of nature to impressionist works capturing the fleeting effects of light and atmosphere.
