About the piece

Created around 1860 by John Skinner Prout, this masterful oil painting captures the rugged and mysterious beauty of the New South Wales landscape. The composition is anchored by a luminous waterfall in the background, while the foreground is alive with detail, showing kangaroos and birds near a fallen log, subtly watched by a hunter in the shadows of the dense bush.
