About the piece

Created in 1833 by John Glover, this work depicts the artist's own property, 'Patterdale,' in Tasmania. The painting is a masterclass in colonial landscape art, featuring his characteristic treatment of light and the sinuous forms of native eucalyptus trees, with resting cattle grounding the composition in a sense of peaceful agrarian life.
