About the piece

Painted in 1893, this masterpiece by Arthur Streeton captures the moody elegance of a rainy day at Redfern station. The loose, confident brushwork highlights the shimmering reflections on the wet pavement, where figures with umbrellas and horse-drawn cabs move through the soft, grey light of an urban afternoon.
