EDITORS COMMENTS
Purple Noon's Transport Light: A Glimpse into the Past of the Hawkesbury River, New South Wales This stunning landscape oil painting, titled "Transport Light," by Australian artist Arthur Streeton, captures the breathtaking beauty of the Hawkesbury River in New South Wales, Australia. Painted circa 1896, the work of art invites us to take a journey back in time, as we gaze upon the tranquil waters of the river, reflecting the vibrant hues of the surrounding Blue Mountains. The painting's title, "Transport Light," may refer to the soft, ethereal light that illuminates the scene, casting a warm glow over the landscape. The miniature forms of animals, including kangaroos and wallabies, can be seen drinking from the waters, adding a sense of life and vitality to the scene. Arthur Streeton was a prominent Australian painter, known for his impressionist works that captured the unique beauty of the Australian landscape. This painting, now part of the Mary Evans Prints Online collection from the March of the Women, is a testament to Streeton's skill and vision. The painting was once in the possession of the National Gallery of Victoria in Melbourne, Australia, and is a cherished piece of Australian art history. The Hawkesbury River, located in New South Wales, has long been a source of inspiration for artists and writers, with its stunning natural beauty and rich history. Streeton's "Transport Light" offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when the world moved at a slower pace, and the simple pleasures of nature were enough to captivate the imagination. As we admire this beautiful work of art, we are reminded of the power of art to transport us to other places and times, and to inspire wonder and appreciation for the natural world around us.
