About the piece

Painted in 1888 by Charles Conder, a key figure in the Australian Impressionist movement, this work masterfully captures the fleeting light of dusk. The composition silhouettes a walking couple against a luminous sky, with the muted tones of the evening reflecting off the ground in a beautiful display of painterly technique.
