About the piece

Created in 1895, this work by Tom Roberts is a quintessential piece of the Australian Impressionist movement. It depicts the rugged beauty of the Macintyre riverbed with a sun-bleached palette and energetic brushwork. The presence of a lone horse and a partially concealed figure adds a layer of frontier narrative, suggesting a quiet moment in the life of a bushranger or a solitary traveler.
