About the piece
Painted in 1888, this atmospheric work by Charles Conder captures the fleeting light of a sunset over Sydney Harbour. Using the loose, expressive brushwork characteristic of Australian Impressionism, Conder depicts a quiet moment on the water, contrasting a solitary white sailboat with the dark silhouette of a steamboat against a glowing, textured sky.
